It's pretty simple. All it takes is Google-fu skill, a $5 soldering iron and a credit card to buy replacement capacitors. I saw this monitor go on eBay for about $50 so add another $15 for caps and you paid $75 for a monitor that cost $800 when it was released. There's a LOT of stuff like this on eBay.

My old g5 mac does this as well...

There's gotta be others with this issue as well as disassembly guides. Go for fixing it :)

Nice.

Well do you know if having backlight to turn off as soon as we turn the screen ON is a capacitor problem too?

I had a problem with my LG, where if I turn the screen on, it will only have the backlight for a second, then it goes black, but the screen is working fine, it just has no backlight, but If i put a candle I can see the LCD working fine.

I fixed it by buying neons, and I replaced the inverter with the ones I bought. The bad problem is that i have two switches and have made a molex connector that I have to connect to the pc power supply so that it powers up (didn't soldered inside the screen) :)

This is my screen:


ps: nice mod u made there :)
Keep Cool

Yea, that's typically a power board issue. A neat trick you can try to verify that it's bad capacitors on the power board (or even the logic board) is to pre-heat them with a hair dryer for a minute or so then turn them on immediately. I've done this on a monitor and DVR. Caps are easy to replace but it can be quite hazardous to play with the huge mains cap (they rarely need replacing) as they can store voltage that can really hurt. You can buy new caps for $20-$30 for some quality Nichicon or Panasonic FM.
