Hi Folks,
I have a C= 1084 monitor. I can't recall the exact model number, but, it looks exactly like the Magnavox Professional RGB Monitor (In fact, I think they made the thing), it has the square power button, and the grey flip-down tilt stand.
I have an issue with this monitor and maybe someone here could give me some pointers to help remedy the problem.
When I first power the monitor up it works fine. After about 30 minutes or so, when it's fully warmed up, the picture will slowly fade out to black. If I give the monitor a wack on the side with the palm of my hand, it will sometimes come back for about 10 - 20 minutes and then go out again. After a while, nothing will bring it back, except letting it sit over night and starting the entire process over again in the morning.
I think that it is fairly obvious that this issue is heat related but I am not sure where to start with it. Any assistance would be very helpful. I am quite good with a soldering iron and know my way around electronic equipment as well, including the dangerous inards of TV's and monitors.
Thanks,
Mike
