CTX 15" monitor not working


I have a CTX 15" monitor that suddenly stopped working. It sounds like it's coming on but there is nothing displayed.

Here's something I came across at another repair forum. Don't try fixing it if you haven't been trained or at least worked on a few monitors before because they're way more risky to work with than televisions:

CTX 1565D Computer Colour Monitor
Black screen but on-lamp ok and yoke crackle on switch on.

Bad solder joints on 5 of the 8 pins between CRT socket and CRT mounted PCB. The pcb holes for this CRT base socket were obviously made for batch of sockets with much larger pins so leaving too large a gap to be filled with solder. Slid a small brass washer down each of the pins and bedded into the solder pads. The owner said the monitor had not been dropped or the rear pannel pushed or knocked so there is probably a lot of monitors of this model with this fault. Unsolder the earth straps and the 4 earth bond point fixings to the pcb to remove the tinplate screening.
