Hey guys, so I returned home to find my monitor essentially dead. No standby light, and no powering on. Multimeter says the adapter is fine and after getting at the main board I found something odd that I hope someone can help with.
With the board powered, and multimeter set to measure 12V load, when probes attached to either side of the on off switch posts on back of the board, in the ON position it shows no current, however in the OFF position it’s measuring varying voltages between 7-10.9 V. Pretty sure it means the switch is bad either way but would love an explanation as to why this is happening.
*Side note, the multimeter showed that the switch had closed continuity in ON position and no continuity in OFF as would be expected. I tested this with board unpowered.
Also, anyone familiar with how to replace this switch? It seems the 2 posts that come out the bottom of the board are offset and I can’t seem to find a rocker switch replacement that has its posts in that configuration. Any help and guidance is deeply appreciated, thx!
