Hi All,
I'm VERY inexperienced when it comes to repairing electronics, so I thought I'd come here with this question...
I recently bought a used InFocus JTouch 40" LED Touchscreen monitor. I got it for really cheap because the touchscreen is registering being touched when there's no contact. I figured it was worth getting to use as a large monitor, but would love to see if I can resolve the touch issue.
I called their support line and was told that, when the touch sensors on these screens start to go bad, interference like radio waves can trigger a touch response. At that point, they don't even bother repairing them as it's not worth the cost of repair. They just do warranty replacement.
As this is out of warranty, I'd like to see if it's possible to repair myself. I looked online and can't seem to find any information on repairing this kind of screen, so I wanted to check here to see if anyone could point me in the right direction.
I went to get a video of the way the screen is acting, and now the touch function doesn't seem to be responding at all. Any thoughts on this?
Thanks,
Nick
