Good evening gentleman of Monitors.

I just got home to find my Iiyama E2473HS has decided to stop working. Now, this morning Mrs Spangles tried to use the computer, and couldn't get the monitor to work, but eventually I sorted it out, and it just came on.

I have just tried it when I got home from work and it just will not switch on. It flashes up on the power button for half a second or so sometimes when I push it, but then that is it, nothing, nada.

Is it possible for the heat we are currently experiencing, to damage the monitors in some way? Or is it just time for me to pack it up and send it off to get it sorted out? I am rather confused about the situation to be honest as I never really thought of a monitor failing.

It has been working fine the past few weeks, so no idea why now it has decided to go like this for no reason.

Any ideas chaps? Don't want to be without it for long but looks like that may be the way. Tried it in different plug sockets too, and with different power cables.

If you handy with a screw driver ? Check the capacitors, yes it could be the heat if you have faulty caps in the monitor. But if its out of warranty then open up the monitor and check for bulging or leaking caps as that could be the problem. ;)

Just a guess!!! :cool:
 
It is in warranty thankfully. Just got to hope I have the box still to pack it into. Problem is we recently moved and everything is in storage so got to go and have a look. Ah well time to do some excercise and be social for a few weeks I suppose. At least it didn't break in winter.
