Boot loop?

Hello, I've recently encountered a problem that boot looped my monitor so I decided to change de the power management board for a new one and this resolved the issue... for 3 weeks or so. Now Im facing the same problem but it doesn't go into a boot loop everytime I boot it as it used to do a few weeks ago... It can take up to 10 times before it does... It makes the monitor unreliable which means I can't send it back to service.. What would you do? Thnkas in advance!

Not sure if any of this can help, but I would first check to make sure the replacement board is fully compatible. Some model monitors have different hardware, firmware, software that may not work or needs updating with your replacement board. I've seen these issues in the past with equipment.

Check to make sure there are no loose wires, grounding straps, boards, etc. Some monitors are very tightly packed. Make sure that the fan(s) are working and it's not overheating.

You may also want to see if this model has a watchdog feature. Check the monitors error log in the service screen for problems.

Make sure the batteries are in good condition. I've seen defective batteries cause many issues with monitors.

 

Good luck!
