IBM monitor stays in standby mode unless heated, why?
When I turn my computer and monitor on, my IBM monitor LED light blinks green in standby mode and does not come on until the room is extremely hot or I put a heat dish on it for some time. I connected the monitor to another PC and it does the same thing. Unless the monitor is in a hot room or is heated, it does not come on. Summers are good, but winters are terrible.
The easy answer is throw it away and get a new one, but I am really curious if anyone may have a clue what's going on?
It's an IBM P260
Monitors go into standby when there are no sync signals.
So, either something is not passing the sync signal on, or there is a fault in the power management circuitry.
I would suspect that you have a loose contact somewhere. A little heat causes thermal expansion and the open contact becomes closed, allowing the circuit to work properly.
Out of curiosity, what monitor is it?
