TTX 19" Monitor
Hello,
I have a 4.5 year old monitor (original owner) that has no display/raster, power LED is good and I hear a clicking sound on power up. Swapped to different workstation same problem. Cleaned the dust out and checked for blown fuses and burned components and obvious arching around the flyback transformer and yoke/CRT. Scoped the flyback (10-pin) on the motherboard pins 1 & 2 and 5 & 6 are signals pins 3 & 4 are ground pins 7,8,9,10 no voltages. Noticed the horizonal output tansistor on heat sink not even getting a little bit warm. The repair facililty is within an hour of my location. The repair costs are $97 labor plus parts if it is not the flyback tranformer or tube[$35 plus tax for diagnostics]. My question is it worth the risk to run to the repair or dump it in the garbage and purchase another monitor. I like the monitor and don't have alot of money at this time to purchase a good replacement. I was running the monitor on a 2-port kvm switch. The other question is does anybody think I have a bad flyback or CRT. Best regards, ral |
