I'm in Scotland but yes there are plenty but probably too costly, I would never use one, would rather repair myself when possible

Hi netdent,

Could be a backlight tube problem - fairly common with 16:9 monitors. Tube tester would be useful, and can be knocked up using a scrap single output 12v inverter where built-in sensing will cut on duff tubes.

Good luck - Chris.

Hi Ronnie,

Link seems to have been deleted. Recall there was one on offer cheaply from a well known company - ran only on 5v and had no tube feedback to cut on duff tubes.

Bought one - total rubbish - Chris.
