Dell 15" lcd monitor doesn't light up.
Someone just gave me an old Dell 15" LCD monitor that doesn't light up. It's date coded June 2005. Model # E153FPb.
I plugged it into my laptop computer, and when the computer turns on, the monitor's light goes green and stays green, but there is no image at all on the monitor.
NOTHING.
No flickers, no fuzzy lines, no anything at all.
Since I got it for free, I thought I'd take it apart and see if it could be fixed. I sure would like to use it instead of lifting a big old 17" CRT onto my computer table every time I get a computer to work on.
Any ideas what the likely problems would be? I was thinking of a backlight, but I read there's a fuse in there too. Links to pages with repair information?

Why was it free? was it working for the previous owner?
They went and got an Acer LCD after that and they are using it now.
I wonder what the problem is.
