VA902b monitor will flash on for half a second and then go black even though the light shows green. Didn't have any problems with the monitor until updates were automatically installed for windows. After connecting and disconnecting the vga cable for about 10 minutes, the monitor will miraculously turn back on like normal, but if the computer goes to sleep for more than 20 minutes, the same problem will occur again. Running windows 7 64-bit Thanks for the help :)

It sounds to me like your losing the high voltage on the inverter board after the board warms up.Could be the transformer or a capacitor on the inverter brd.

having the same exact problem...it started with the green led power light flickering and it would take a long time to come up and then it got progressively worse...now the led light flickers red, yellow, green and the screen displays white lines randomly as the led light flickers...seriously doubt that the monitor is repairable....paid $500+ bucks for this sucker and have only had it for 1.5 years...have 3 CRT monitors that only cost $100 bucks from the mid 90's that are all still running strong (none are ViewSonic monitors), so needless to say we are very very disappointed in the QUALITY of ViewSonic Products.

I have the same problem. If the computer goes into power save mode for the monitor the VA912b won't come back on. The LED blinks and it makes a repeating "bloop" noise.

I have no solution other then what was stated. Turn it off for several minutes and turn it back on. Sometimes you have to try this repeatedly before it works. (I have two VA912b monitors that I bought at the same time and both are connected to the same pc - this only happens to one of them)

Got an RMA number within 24 hours of first email, they sent courier to grab old one in 2 days, and replacement arrived within 6 days of original being picked up with no cost to me. Very happy with that. Also all dead pixels fixed!! Yay!!

Monitor won't turn on after a few hours of being shut off

If it EVER works, then the problem is not a failed part, but a weak part. The most likely component type to give you such problems are capacitors. But very few repair techs know how to find such problems, and even fewer have the equipment needed to find the bad one(s) in-circuit. The failure mode is high ESR (ESR means Equivalent Series Resistance). The lower the ESR, the better. Capacitors with high ESR cannot stabilize circuits which demand high pulse currents, such as in switch mode power supplies.

Tmy monitor shows the images only for 20 seconds, then it turns black.

Hi hope your monitor issue has resolved. I would suspect the problem is a hardware issue then a software setting. Since the monitor is over three and half years old, if your monitor is a LCD with CCFL back light and had been used almost every day, there may be 3 possible hardware issues. First is the internal power supply, that can go wrong due to heating problem within the monitor, this problem usually cause the monitor to display poor quality picture and may show interference lines on screen prior failure. Secondly, it may be the inverter that drives the back light, which may fail due to the safety circuit kicks in, because it involves with high voltages. Thirdly it may be the backlight itself, which is like most compact CCFL energy saving lamps that flickers or turn itself off when it reaches the end of its service life. This problem usually caused the monitor to show redness or yellowness images prior failure.

All of these can be resolved by qualified electronic repairers, all the best.

The problem can be in the backlight inverter circuits, look fo bad caps with bulging tops, look to see if you do have 12vdc feeding the inverter circuits. See some examples of failed monitors here: http://s807.photobucket.com/home/budm/allalbums

I have a ViewSonic VA902b that will flash a good screen if I turn if off and on but otherwise just black. I traded it out with the monitor from another computer and it does the same thing on the other...

Hi.

To start test the problem on a different main outlet, if the socket or the network in the house is not well earthed you may get this problem.


The problem is given by an internal faulty component, probably a faulty capacitor.

When you unplug and plug back, the electrostatic charges in internal circuit will get drained, and this will compensate the fault.

The monitor must be tested at component level to find the fault.

Monitor goes blank coming out of power save mode

I found this on the Internet...

"Press the "Input" button on your LCD monitor's front panel repeatedly at three- or four-second intervals until your monitor wakes up. If your monitor is set to an incorrect input mode, it won't receive a video signal. After you reset the monitor to the proper input mode, it will receive the signal and wake up automatically."

I have provided a Link with more info for you!

Monitor flashes on and off!

Sounds like you have a bad connection from your monitor to your computer. First check and make sure the connection between them is tight. Does your computer boot up and run though? If your computer is not booting up the monitor will default back to the flashing green power light
