Info on repairing old commodore and philips monitors

[Damion]

Hmmm....I have an old 1802 that started doing the
same thing weeks after I bought it. First it
would randomly shut off, then eventually nothing.
No LED, but you could hear something in there
singing.

I had the local C= dealer fix it (he said it was
a bad PSU), and exactly one day after the
warranty had expired (30 days), it broke again!
Our scum dealer wanted to charge to fix it the
second time...I told him to eat ****, and the
monitor still sits in my closet...almost new,
yet broken.

There is one 1084S that I was going to throw out.

Yeah, I almost tossed mine too.

It's interesting to hear that somebody had
the same problem with their C= monitor. Maybe
it was a common thing with them? :-?

Anybody here used to fix these things, and can
tell us the likely culprit? No LED, but part of
the board must be getting power, becasue there
is something inside "zinging" up..
