Need monitor repaired. Ideas???

[David W. Richardson]

A friend gave me a $1700 monitor -- a Eizo FlexScan L560T-CB -- but it's broken. There's a small circuit board that goes under the front cover and contains the switches for the power and other front buttons. The board connects to the main board via a small cable with a connector similar in size to a ribbon cable connector. The pins that were on the board have broken off and are inside the connector. Other than this, I believe the monitor works.

Need suggestions on how to find someone who could repair it fairly inexpensively.

Thanks Jim. I'm hoping to get this done locally so I won't have to ship the thing anywhere. But I'll keep TriState in mind.

Got it working! Studying the circuit board, I realized it's just switches with no significant electronic components. So I traced the path of the on/off switch, figured out which leads on the ribbon cable it connected to, jumpered those leads.....and VOILA!!! It came on!

Works great! Have to figure out the other leads so I can adjust brightness, color, etc. But works great just the way it is. So I'm happy!

Still going to find someone to fix that circuit board though.
