I've received a 2007 Belina o.display 2.1 22" Wide monitor with build-in speakers which worked great during my smoke test - at least until I plugged in the sound.
It suddenly is black (technically blinking as the light starts and stop) and the power LED is blinking in the same rate (no code), so it seems like the monitor powers on an off again continuously in a loop.
I've checked around and most articles and videos I've seen have shown bulgy capacitors, which also were my initial thought but I can not see any on my power board.
One video also showed clearly burned parts, but as far as I can see my power board of clean.
There is a high electrical "pitch" (barely hearable but is kind of a background noice).
Before I take it to the recycling center I would love to see if anyone else have some heat ideas of what to check for, since I've honestly would love to use it for my PeCy from 2003 as it fits it's colour scheme quite nicely.
I've attached some pictures of the power board which I think is the issue.
On the motherboard I also can not see any visible damages.
I really hope that some of you will have suggestions that leads to the recovery of this nice screen so we can avoid it ends up as eWaste 😀
So many computers, so little time...
