I thought it was a dirty brightness control, and in fact all of the adjustment pots were getting pretty dirty.

Though I can't say for sure what your problem is, I'll tell you what the guy at the shop said I did wrong... He said, " You really shouldn't poor coffee into the monitor. I can guarantee you it's not good for it. " but I said, " Well I know pooring coffee into wasn't a good thing. I could tell when it started sparking, but I figured out how to solve the problem. I added some de-caf to calm it down." To be honest...the whole de-caff thing was somewhat of a castastrophe from the very beginning, but hey...the regular coffee hadn't kicked in on MY circuits yet, and I had to think fast.
