[Sderby] Monitor - Just gets worse

[Graham Hamblin]

Hiyer Ashley

Taking the usual precautions with high voltages that may remain in the 
monitor for days after it has been diconnected from the supply, if it 
were mine, I would carefully check it over for dry joints paying 
attention to the areas where it gets hot.   Continual heating up and 
cooling down could easily cause a poorly soldered joint to cause your 
problem.

I bet this will cure the problem.   If not and it is a component going 
your job will be significantly easier for you when it goes.
