I-inc CY199 monitor will not turn on

My problem is the same as several others, no picture, and the power-LED blinks yellow and blue.

It sounds like this is a problem with the firmware, and I would be interested in finding someone who could provide me with a flashed eeprom.

Hello,

It sounds like you have a monitor with a common problem, we have repaired many Hanns-G monitors with this 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 the monitor. If you are good at electronics repair/soldering you can usually fix the 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 can't do the repair we offer a repair service, contact us for more details.

I hope this helps, if so please rate my solution.

    I actually had this issue with mine, and just replaced the serial eprom on the video logic board. $.28 part 24lc16b from digikey. Cost 20x that amount in shipping, soldered it in place of the original, and now a working monitor. I actually ordered like 10 of those chips because I have an office filled with these units, and its the 3rd time we had this issue. No transferring of data needed, just soldered blank chip in and it works.

    Could you provide a link to the correct item on digikey's site? It looks like they have 60+ items matching the part number "24lc16b". Or a little more info on whet exactly to buy would help as well. Thanks! Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Installed new lamp. When powered up blue solid light and yellow blinking light (15x) , tv would torn off and on several times trying to light lamp. Once that failed red blinking light and yellow solid...

Hi Genaro,

Blue led light lit solid and yellow led light flashes is an initial attempt of the set to re-light the lamp.Red led flashes and yellow led light solid means that the lamp won't light up that's why it only has sound without the picture.
Since you've replaced the lamp twice and still the symptoms persist, I suspected that the fault came from the ballast board and not on the lamp itself. If the ballast board gone to malfunction, there's no high voltage will produce to light up the lamp and will sensed by the processor and trigger the error code (Flashes/solid led light with color code).

To verify whether the ballast board is faulty or not, check if the lamp will lit by looking through the lamp door louvers at the rear of the cabinet upon turning on the set.
Please let me know what you will find to assist you further.

My samsung NW920 turns off after 1 min

If the blue LED ist blinking the monitor does not receive a video/sync signal. If the blue LED is on continuously and the display comes on for a few seconds and then goes dark or dim the backlight inverter may well be defective. The CCFL of the backlight needs several hundred volts to function.

No picture,led blinking yellow and blue

Its noting to do with capaitors the EEPROM has been corrupted not sure how this happens as the write protect for the eeprom is under the control of the cpu and not hard wired.
I have repaired three of these monitors all with the same fault no components were required just the eeprom re flashed.
The EEPROMs are very cheap so I will buy a few and pre programm them for others wishing to repair there own monitors.

I-INC cy199

I have the exact same problem myself that just happened today. It apparently happens about a month or two after the warranty expires ;) I have 2 on my desk and one of them just stopped working. It is obviously a hardware problem and cannot be fixed without sending it back to the factory. They quote $65 for labor plus shipping. I might just go in the junk pile and I'll have to buy another.

I-INC CY199D lcd monitors will not turn on

The problem is the program for the graphics card is stored on a 16K serial eeprom which is used as a rom this can get corrupted which causes the problems you are experiancing.
I have repaired three of these monitors by re-flashing the eeprom with a program cloned from a working monitor all worked fine after refashing.
Now the bad news as the eeprom is used as a rom it is write protected on the board so the only way to program it is to remove it flash it with a valid program and then replace it easy if you are a surface mount expert.and have a serial eeprom programmer.

Dual monitors in XP Pro - HP Pavilion zd7000 laptop & I-Inc CY199 monitor

in that case u need a video hub, like : display booster. we call it a vga display booster. this may increase the quality of a picture. because when we attach any display unit, the image appears in two portion. it's gain is to low. to make it more sharp, monitor itself add some colour to that picture. the vga signal is fixed from inside of the monitor with resistance, so u can't make any variations in picture. that's why u guys need that VGA booster.

Monitor lite blinks from blue to yellow

I bought my monitor last year and had it for only a couple of months and the same thing, it is blinking the yellow and blue led. I can't believe that so many people are having the same problem. I went to the I-INC web site and there is nothing posted about this problem. I think that they really need to address this and let the consumers know what is going on with this. I feel like just trashing this monitor. I ahd to end up buying a cheap bulky monitor to replace it.
