Hi, I imported this monitor from YAJ, it was advertised as working, but it does not work at all when it arrived, might have been damaged in shipping?  Only had a bit of bubblewrap around it, no physical damage that I can see, but there was a crack on one of the monitor PCBs, it didn't seem to affect any traces but I did patch one just in case.  The power light turns on red, if I hit the power on the remote I hear a tick noise like a relay, and the power light just stays red, but from what I understand it should be turning green correct?  Any pointers on how to troubleshoot?  Thanks in advance.

I wish I could help.  That crack looks like it happened right under thy flyback, is that correct?  That's a chunky bit of mass, if there was impact I'd say you got lucky that was all the damage that resulted.

It looks like there's a crack that runs between the right plastic clip and the nearest flyback solder point, in your third image.  Since this is a high voltage section I'd start by inspecting the flyback itself.  Was it cracked anywhere?  That might seal the whole monitor's fate.  But then maybe do some more patching to rule out connections that fail when it's all reassembled and in the operating orientation.

That whole crack line makes me twitch, it's a nasty bit of damage.

But yeah, check all around that flyback for sure.
