Hey my name is Daniel,
I have a Xerox 17'' monitor that was giving to me. The person that gave it to me said it didnt work. When I brought it home I hooked it up to my desktop and it worked fine...I already had a monitor so I stored it in my closet. So I got another desk top and I decided to not buy a monitor because I had this Xerox monitor.....I hooked it up again and it worked fine....But I shut my computer down, started it back up and now the monitor will not go on. I think it is stuck in sleep mode.. But I recently noticed that the green light on the a/c wall adapter is flashing when I plugg it in the monitor. when i disconnect it the green light stays lit...I know it is not the wall adapter that is the problem because I plugged it to my other monitor and it worked fine......Please help me if you have a solution..
thanks, Daniel

I had the same problem but fortunately I have two of these monitors so could fiddle with the menus on the working monitor until I could work out how to fix it on the one with the white screen problem. Here's what you do:-
With the monitor on and the white screen showing press MENU, then UP 7 times, then MENU and presto! Your screen will be back to normal.
What this does is change the input from ANALOG to DIGITAL (or vice versa!) either way this worked for me.

I have also fixed my wife's Xerox monitor Thanks to all the posts on this website !!! I just fixed it yesterday. It was fairly easy.
I layed my on a clean towel. Like they said remove the stand first. Then the 2 screw's on the back side near the bottom. Then push the glass down about a 1/4'' .It took a couple of tries to get the glass to push down. Then lift the glass off the front of the monitor. Lay the monitor on it's back. There are 6 screws that hold the screen in place. Gently lift the screen up, on the right side are 2 sets on wires to disconnect. On the upper left side there is a small ribbon cable gently unplug it. Then you can lift the screen out. Now you will see a metal cover over the power supply board and the other board. There is about 6 scews to remove and then the metal cover will come off. The power supply board is on the right side. In order to remove the board you need to remove the screw holding the green ground wire down, It is on the lower left side next to where the black plug in, for the power cord plugs in. Now you need to gently pull that black plug up and pull the wires towards the right to get them out. On the power supply board there are 4 screws holding it down, also on the upper left side the board has a 6 pin connector where it plugs into the other board, gently pull it up. Now the board is out and you can take it to radio shack to get the capacitor's for it. I replaced, all 6 of the big ones and the 1 small one. I had to go to 2 stores to get all 6 of the big ones. Radio shacks item # for the 6 big ones is 272-1030 and the one small one is item # 272-1029. I also bought a pencil sodering iron and some soder they suggested. I spent $25.00 to fix my monitor. After reading the posts on here i figured i could do this. It took me about half a day to do this work. I also copied the posts to Microsoft Word on my computer so i could print out the posts to help me with doing this work. I also saw a few posts where some of you were asking for more help and directions on how to do this. So this is my way of thanking the people who already posted about fixing their monitor.
Thanks again for the post from Xeroxfixed posted Mar.16, 2008 and guest posted may 8, 2008 with out those that monitor would still be sitting in a box in the house collecting dust. Now it is on my wife's desk and she is happy to have it working again. We bought because she really liked the glass front on it.

Most common failure 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 goes wrong: http://s807.photobucket.com/home/budm/allalbums
Post back what you see inside so we can guide you further and it will help out other people in the future also.
