Westinghouse LCM-19v1 Monitor Questions & Answers
Monitor losing power
It has possibly decided to close down. Some monitors have a power shutdown as power saver of two or more levels. It may wake up from pushing a button on the monitor. Check on the screen settings to see if monitor can stopped doing this. I had a monitor that did this years ago, long since replaced.

I have a Westinghouse LCM-19v1 SL that only stays
Hello,
It sounds like you have a monitor with a common problem. After a few years some LCD monitors will
blow a power supply. The problem is caused by parts called capacitors
overheating in the confined space of he monitor. If you are good at electronics repair/soldering you can usually fix he problem. Check out a few pictures on my web site
www.ccl-la.com/badcaps.htm You
can take the back cover off your monitor and look for the bad
parts,replace any that look like the pictures and your monitor should
work fine. The capacitors do need to be installed with the correct + and
- connections, note the stripe on the old one and insert the new one
the same way. If you don't want to try the repair yourself we offer a repair
service for $35 plus shipping. If your problem is not the capacitors
then it would be the backlights and that is much more difficult to
replace.
I hope this helps, if so please rate my solution.

More likely to be bad caps in the power supply, you will have to invest money in tools to do the repair.
Please read on so you will have some ideas if you want to fix it or not.
If you are going to DIY and have proper tools and know safety precaution then please read on:
Most common failures in the LCD monitors are bad capacitors (bulging top/seal or leaking) in the power supply (they should be replaced in a set), blown fuses; poor solder joints, failed inverter circuits (blown fuse, shorted transistors, shorted/open transformers), bad lamps (poor solder connections or worn out lamps). You will need to open it up and inspect the inside, see example of failed monitors to get some ideas what to look for: http://s807.photobucket.com/home/budm/allalbums

Blank screen,no picture,nada,is repair worthwhile
Hello,
Yes, it is, it is just the picture board that is faulty. since the power led or button is on, it means the
picture
board of your monitor has developed fault.
The best thing for you
to
do now is to take the monitor to a local repairer within your vicinity or any service center
to help with the replacement of the picture board
because the fault is not something you can fix yourself, in order not to
complicate issues.
Take care.
How do i turn the volume up
Did you turn up the both (at the PC Audio control panel and at the Monitor control panel) volumes up?
Try using MP3 player or any audio sound sources feeding the monitor audio input to see what happen also.
We switched it to a different computer and the
hi this could be due to the fact that the resolution is set incorectly on the other computer, try lowering it to the minimum at first then increase the resolution and see what happens...hope this helped
