2. Fault Analysis and Causes:

Based on the fault phenomenon, it can be determined that the problem lies with the monitor itself. Replacing the monitor with another one confirmed this, as it displayed normally.

Replacing the capacitor with one of the same specifications and retesting resulted in normal display.
