Sceptre X9G Komodo IV 19" Monitor

The monitor comes on but will only work for about 5 minutes before it goes blank. The power/signal light stays on but there is no display. I can turn it off for a few minutes and then turn it back on and it will work. However, it go back off in another 5 minutes or less.

Hi dgp1952, Check with www.lcdrepair.net if you want a repair. Something is wrong with your backlight or the circuit supplying power to it. If your technically endowed, you may want to open the monitor case and clean the dust and lint from around the circuits using a Small paint brush to sweep away any built up dust. Dust can cause the circuitry to heat up faster and put the power supply into Clamp mode. Clamp mode will turn the supply off to certain circuits which may be the reason your display is going black after 5 minutes.

I've got a Sceptre 19 in monitor with the typical "on for a sec and goes dark". I removed the 6 screws on the back of the case but obviously there is a further step thats alluding me...how to you crack the...

You need to use a plastic scribe to run around the edge of the monitor seam. A plastic scribe is a tool that looks like a knife, but it is not really sharp. Pry into the seam on the monitor and gently but firmly work around the edge until it pops apart.

Same problem here

My Sceptre Komodo 19 would turn on for less than a second than turn off. Eventually, I could get it to stay up. But after a month, I couldn't get it to stay on anymore.
I found the solution on this website. There are some bad capacitors... 4 of them for about $2 worth. I replaced all four and the monitor works fine again. They are soldered in. They are polarized; they need to be installed the right way. The white stripe goes towards the “wall”.
2 are 470uf 25v and 2 are 1200uf 10v.
I ordered mine for about $10 with shipping from Mouser.com

Sceptre DCLCD19+ MONITOR WHITE SCREEN

To me it sounds like the bulb is having a problem with powering up. It may be an issue with the power adaptor or the outlet it is plugged into. Have you tried to plug it in, in other outlets?

Sceptre X9G-Komodo IV

I recently came accross one of these monitors (Planar PE191M) with the identical issue. The resolution was to replace the two 470ufd 25V capacitors that are located on the main power board. The main power board also contains the audio circuit and more importantly the inverter circuit that drives the CCFL backlighting. The suspect caps were identified using an ESR meter; if you happen to have one of these meters you can confirm this is the issue with your unit(s), alternatively you can just replace the two capacitors and see if it resolves your issue. Hope this info helps someone out there.
