Faulty TFT Monitor

Post by Frankie C »

Folks,
I have an intermittent fault on my Neovo F-419 TFT monitor!
Every so often the screen goes blank and then starts to flash. If I switch it off and leave it for ten minutes it then comes back to life.
Any ideas? Component breaking down? Dry joint?
Or is it time I opened the wallet and bought a new one?

I guess a lot will depend what it's worth and how old it is, I assume well out of warranty. You could either look at getting ir repaired but probably just as cheap to buy a new one or take it a part anf have a look yourself. have you tried changing the cable to the computer and check the power supply for any lose wires or other faults. other than that it might be time to get a new screen.

Try cleaning the connectors (but really I suspect Dry Joints and/or a Power Supply about to go Phut tbh)
Start browsing for a bargain (as in reasonably priced) replacement now while it's still working IMO ./thumbsup..
