Liquid Video L17LCD2 (Silver) 17 in. Flat Panel LCD Monitor turns on and off rapidly, every second or two. I have localized the problem to the monitor, it is not the computer. What can I do to make the repair? Is it more economical to buy another. I gave 20.00 for this one at a yard sale.
Yes! I think you would be further ahead getting a brand new monitor since they have come down in price.

There is no "instant" fix for this problem. A friend of mine gave me this same monitor 3 months ago & I just sat down to fix the unit. Here's what I did: http://www.wizardanswers.com/liquidvideorepair.html
I followed the exact steps & about $5 later I have a working monitor.

Most common failures in the LCD monitors are bad capacitors (bulging top/seal or leaking) in the power supply, failed inverter circuits (blown fuse, shorted transistors, shorted/open transformers), bad lamps (poor solder connections or worn out lamps). You will need to open it up and inspect the inside, see example of failed monitors to get some ideas what to look for: http://s807.photobucket.com/home/budm/allalbums
