Question about Sony SDM HS93 19" LCD Monitor

Soft Controls on monitor are inoperable

Sony SDM HS93 works fine, but: Monitor will not turn on with power button, if I plug in A/C cord power light goes on, monitor works. Sometimes the monitor comes on too bright, other times, too dim. Sometimes the monitor comes on with interference lines or different colored hues. I think this all stems from the soft controls themselves. What can I replace to make it work normally?

Most likely both problems above are due to dirt/smoke/crud on the keypads; in the case of power, plugging and unplugging is workable albeit obnoxious, and COULD shorten the life of the monitor. More than one button means it's probably time for a teardown and cleaning, which could take 2 hours, but almost certainly more than 1.

Monitor light up then shut down itself

1. Verify the monitor's power cord is plugged firmly into the wall outlet and the back of the monitor.
2. Verify the monitor cable is firmly connected to the computer and the monitor.
3. Verify that you have turned the monitor power switch on.
4. If the power light on the monitor is not on, test the wall outlet (plug in a light or something you know works).
5. If the power light on the monitor is not on, try a different power cord.
6. If the power light is on and yellow or flashing, but nothing displays, or the display is incorrect, borrow a monitor from a friend. If that works, your monitor probably needs replaced.

Power light lights up but monitor dont come on

HI,Dear Friends..
Do you hear the hard drive working and see the LED flickering? As you can't see the screen to log on, Windows will stop at that point.

> If you have a spare PC monitor and VGA to VGA lead check it.
> And your keyboard working properly or not, if NUMLOCK light on it means your hard drive is OK.

> Your Monitor light on/off regular, or not? if light regular blink then power come but VGA section not working. So please contact Monitor Engineer.

Thanks...

Sony SDM HS73 ''turns off''

One thing I know for sure on this model HS73/HS93 is that the backlight assemblies failed due to poor soldering works. This may the problem with your monitor.

It is very time consuming repair works that I doubt very much if repair shop will do the work.

No input signal, go to power save sony sdm-hs93

I f you see the message on the screen indicating 'NO INPUR SIGNAL', you need to check the VGA cable and both ends of the connectors also. Try this monitor with other PC also.

This SDM-HS73/93 have common problem: bad backlight assemblies due to poor workmanship in sodlering works, see my pictures below. You should also inspect the caps. This is not recommend for DIY.
