Help with CPD-300SF monitor does not detect sync from cable?

[Aslaner]

I have this monitor, it must be a common problem.
It powers up, high voltage starts up, if I don't hook it up to a computer,
it shuts the high voltage and the front LED goes from green to amber
flashing. which is normal but when I hook up the cable it doesn't look like
it detects it?
The hight volatge does not start up again or the LED does not go green.
I suspect a component is faulty on the board at the neck of the picture tube
as the video cable goes there only.

Could it be that it has a video cable with different pinout (HD-15 type) ?

Found the problem
Upon disassembly, I found an area where there was a lot of overheating.
I found that 2 capacitors were badly overheated, C415 and C413 (101K,2KVA
rating ).
I changed them and the unit now had the high voltage startup but no more
flashing yellow which after downlaoding the Operating manual meant that was
a problem with it.


Hope this helps someone else with a similar problem.
