Re: Samsung SyncMaster T240 2-second backlight problem

Hi mucoast, it was indeed the transformer!

Monitor is now up and running ^_^

Hello all,

I'm so glad to have found this forum. Looks like a great place to hang out and learn a great many things!

I come to you with a misbehaving Samsung SyncMaster T240. As I understand, this is a common issue. I'm just looking for a little advice.

I've pulled it apart and compared the power/inverter board with that of another ancient T240 thread on here (that didn't seem to get resolved, that one).

It looks very much the same - there's a browning around the transformer/cap area in the same place as these other boards I've seen....
