Julie:
The tube should last for about 10 years...
The *only* problem of monitors is its high voltage...if you don't discharge
the tube and the capacitors, you can be "freid"...I mean..it's a deadly
voltage..so ..if you don't know about handling high voltage, DON'T OPEN IT,
and do not try to repair by yourself...
If it is a typical simple electronic problem , expect a number between $25 -
$50 to get repaired....

: My (almost) new monitor broke down yesterday. It is 4 years old so the
shop
: said they won't repair it for me for free. Is there some way I can repair
it
: myself? I know it's not the computer coz a monitor I borrowed (this one
I'm
: using) works just fine. I know too if the tube is broken,
: it's probably not worth repairing but a tube should last more than 4
years?
: Are there minor problems which someone with little experience can fix?
: What precautions must I take? Any advice will be much appreciated.
