So it's come time for me to learn a couple things.
I have this oldie but goldie monitor that i want to get running again, it's been 2ce so far this monitor went out cold on me. First time was around 8 months ago when i had a power outage and the screen would not turn on. Took it to get it fixed, it stayed there for 3 days and came back alive and working. Not 40 days later, another power outage and my screen went dark again (Yes, I've learned, I now have all my current components plugged into a surge protector). It's been dead since (about 6 months now).
Here's the issue in a single sentence:
- Plugged in.
- No lights, no backlight, nothing. Completely dark.
Now I'm not about to drop another $150 to get this fixed again, if it's going to come back to life, it's going to be by my hands. BUT, I don't know how.
I found a thread on here, pretty dead since 2016, where the person involved had a very similar problem but I have no clue what was fixed, how it was fixed.

At this point I have the necessary tools to diagnose the problem, but 0 knowledge on how to do it.
Any guidance would be greatly valued.
Thank you!
Andrew.
