My monitor is about 6 years old. Some weeks ago, when I powered on, a grey streak started appearing and moved top to bottom before the normal image came on. Lately, the monitor blinks on and off when I power on. Sometimes it corrects by itself, and sometimes I have to unplug/replug the power cord several times before it works properly. - Bill R

This sounds like you have a problem in your power supply. The capacitors in the power supply "clean" up the voltage and provide you with a steady power source. When the capacitors go bad you can be left with either a power deficit of a power surplus which could cause the problems that you are experiencing. Capacitors are pretty hard working devices that are much like batteries but charge and discharge really fast. Capacitors work really hard in a power supply and its not uncommon when they fail. Unfortunately the only thing you can do here is either purchase a new power board or if you feel brave, look at the caps on your power board and swap them out with new ones. They're pretty cheap and you might learn something.

Hello,

You have a monitor with a common problem. After a few years some LCD monitors will blow a power supply. The problem is caused by parts called capacitors overheating in the confined space of he monitor. If you are good at electronics repair/soldering you can usually fix he problem. Check out a few pictures on my web site www.ccl-la.com/badcaps.htm You can take the back cover off your monitor and look for the bad parts, replace any that look like the pictures and your monitor should work fine. The capacitors do need to be installed with the correct + and - connections, note the stripe on the old one and insert the new one the same way. If you don't want to try the repair yourself we offer a repair service for $35 plus shipping. I hope this helps, if so please rate my solution.

Luxor lux0140001B/01 1 week old picture has top half with a grey see through screen

If your LCD TV or monitor has stopped working, or is displaying one of the following
symptoms, then it's a candidate for some new capacitors
- Flickering screen
- Screen image disappears after several seconds
- Dim screen
- Slow start
- Power LED on, but no picture
- Unusual colors and/or lines
The primary cause of LCD TV and monitor failure is caused by faulty capacitors. You can
examine the capacitors in your LCD TV or monitor and actually see if they are bad.
If they appear bulged on top, then they need to be replaced.
New capacitors will solve a host of problems in LCD monitors and TV's and will extend the life
of your monitor or TV by several years.
Check the cables, connectors and connections.

I have a Panasonic Quintrix F TV. About 6 weeks ago the tv screen started displaying

Rule out the signal source by seeing if same issue when a DVD etc is used.

Usually a wave like motion from bottom to top is either signal related or a problem in the power supply (wave moves from bottom to top suggests that).

If not on rear inputs (A/V) it is not the power supply.

Model number is not indicated here and might be helpful.

I had the same problem w/ the same TV about 6 months ago. You need a new optical engine. Hopefully you are still under warranty. Once that was replaced, the tv looks great.
