Any input would be great, I myself find it odd that there is no fuse, and I plugged the0 cables into an old screen I had in a closet, and it works.

Underside of PS board?

I don't see anything obvious. Tested the PS for voltages with a multimeter yet?

last pic is the bottom of the ps board, to me, never working on a monitor before, I'm not sure what voltage I should see coming from the ps board. the one thing I thought odd, the ps board has a small board on the one side with an arrow on it that says dip, a small ribbon cable plugs into the white plug there, nothing plugs into the black connector. not sure what that is for.

also noticed that the ps board dose mention a fuse, right beside the power plug, but as far as I can tell, there isn't one, or am I just not seeing it

Possibly a bad diode on the power supply board?
Has there been any thunderstorms in your area?

It's there

sorry about your monitor OP. These are the kinds of problems I hate the most since they are the biggest time sinks to troubleshoot.

If you can't find any help anywhere I would suggest you at least replace the capacitors if you are handy with a soldering iron. Looks like a really easy job since you have plenty of space in that PS board. It may or may not work but lets face it, the cost of a few capacitors and an hour or two isn't going to be too bad for a potential fix.

I didn't even realize that was a fuse

if the fuse checks out as ok, check that all the output voltages of the board are ok, but be very careful while doing it (dont die). there might be a cold/broken joint somewhere in there, since its the board that withstands the largest operative temperature range, preventing it (and thus everything else) from function properly

I was thinking about doing that, it just surprised me, that it had no signs of failure that most do, just one day it worked great, the next day, nothing. especially to see the board looking like new, no marks from hot spots, and now swelled, or leaking caps. I completely missed that fuse, will be the first thing I check when I get home. thank you for your help, I'll let you know if I figured anything out.

alright, got out my meter, fuse is good, as power in is good, no power out of board, testing and probing different areas of the ps board, I noticed that the board is divided into a low voltage and high voltage side, the only thing bridging the two side, is a small step down transformer. testing it out, got power into it, and nothing coming out, so my guess that is the problem.

my next question is, where can I go looking for a replacement ps board, as I can solder, with the setup of the transformer, 5 leads on both sides, I don't think I have the skill to replace it. thank you for your help.
