Question:

How do you refurbish an LCD monitor?

I know it's not going to be simple, but I'm sure someone, somewhere must have tried this. I have a couple of LCD monitors for computers I would like to refurbish - one was a flat screen I had for my PC that burned out a couple of years ago and another is for a laptop (less than a year old) and it seems to have stopped working.What I want to know is, is there anywhere that I can find instructions or a process for taking it apart and rebuilding it/refurbish the monitors to see if they can be fixed. I've checked google, but all that comes up is sites for monitors that are already refurbished - no sites that offer details on the process. This surprised me, because as I said, sure people must have tried and done this successfully and put it out on the web - people do that all the time for the most inane stuff, yet I can't find anything.

Answer:

I would try doing a search for the specific monitor type (brand and model) that you are looking to refurbish as each monitor is going to have a different process. I had a similar problem when I went to repair my laptop's LCD screen. Check the manufacturer's website as well for maintenance documents. Take note, however, that the parts for your monitor may cost more that it would cost you to just go out and purchase a new monitor.
