Can the failed LEDs on the half the screen be repaired?

recently I’ve noticed that the LED on the left half of my 48 inch monitor (EB490QK) is not lighting up and remains dark and when switched on still shows a full picture but is dim compared to the right side.

Troubleshoots I’ve already tried: removing all cables and holding down the power button for 30-60seconds

if this can be repaired what parts do I need?

    Hello! If your monitor is not under warranty, try swapping these two cables to see if the problem is with the cable. Check if the black screen issue changes positions as well:

    Beware of the high voltages coming from the power board! If it's under warranty, let the technicians fix it.

    thank you for your response. I purchased in 2018 so my warranty is well up.

  • Then check those cables. But disassembling a monitor is not as easy as disassembling a computer.

    yes it looks to be abit of a pain in the a**. I’ll email some local technicians to see what they can do and what prices. Slightly annoying having paid £700 for a monitor that has a shelf life of 5years.
