Title: LG monitor randomly turning off
Post by: Cloud.Strife on May 09, 2016, 07:59:04 AM
Hello,

My 23" LG IPS237L-BN monitor is randomly turning off and I have to turn it on manually or even plug out and in the power source cable. Sometimes it doesn't happen for a week but sometimes it does few times per hour, which is driving me extremely crazy, especially, when I am watching a movie. I have tested the monitor connected to a different laptop and the problem persisted and when I was using a different monitor on my laptop, the problem didn't appear so the problem is definitely in the monitor. Resetting the settings didn't helped at all. I guess, that the problem is probably in touch buttons (the most stupid idea ever!), but does anybody have an idea, how can I solve my problem? Probably i will have to disassemble it and clean contacts or something like that, but is here someone who encountered the same or similar problem and successfully solved it? Thanks a lot in advance!!!!

Have you checked your temperatures on that laptop ? ?

The fact it occurs on 2 different monitors points to the laptop as the culprit...

Sorry, if I didn't say it more clear, but it doesn't occur on two different monitors. It occurs on the same monitor plugged in to two different laptops, so the culprit is definitely the MONITOR!

Is it still under warranty?
