Hello,

I cam across the following posting while trouble shooting the same
problem with the same monitor:
http://www.jlaforums.com/viewtopic.php?p=19993827

The raster comes on for about 2 seconds and then goes black. I don't
have the equipment to ESR the caps, so I checked for anything
obvious and then checked the two two high voltage outputs CW401, 402.
They are identified on the board as 800Vac 15mA max. I measured
these with an AC meter and came up with one side at about 230v and
the other was almost 10x that, at 2.2kv.

The funny thing is that when my test leads are across the higher
output, the raster comes on and stays on as long as my meter is
connected. As soon as I remove a test lead, the raster shuts off.

Testing the side with 230v doesn't make a difference. The raster
stays on just long enough for my meter to capture the voltage.

I assume my power board (6871TPT285A) is no good, and will order a
replacement (superseded to 6871TPT286A), but I'm wondering if it
makes sense to anyone that the raster stays on when my meter is
connected to the output that is reading high?

Thanks for your input!
Best,
Matt

The high voltage suggests that there is no load on the output of the
inverter transformer. Could be O/C series cap or a failed tube.

Not to long ago I posted some pictures of a failed cap on an inverter
board. Replacing the cap solved the problem.

There is probably a current sensing circuit that now thinks that the
load is OK.

If this is a LCD panel with CCFL, it could be that one or more of the
tubes are out and it's not detecting proper load, and shutting down..

Or , could just be a bad inverter as you say..

Here is the service manual. I don't think it helps, though. :-(
