Manufacturer Narrative

The reported complaint was confirmed.Per the user facility's biomedical technician, the original issue of the unit not powering up occurred sometime the week of (b)(6) 2021.During laboratory analysis, the product surveillance technician (pst) observed that the capacitor at c19 had failed which was the cause of the monitor not functioning.The charge indicator light on the back of the monitor was flashing and the monitor did not respond to the power switch.He checked the charging circuit output which was found to be unstable between zero and five volts direct current (vdc).He disassembled the monitor to access the power supply.With the auxiliary (aux) board disconnected, the output was 12vdc as expected.With the board connected, the output voltage was the same as from the charging circuit, fluctuating and low.He observed the capacitor at c19 to be shorted, causing a short circuit from the +12 power supply input to ground.The aux board had failed, preventing monitor function.The unit was determined to be end of service life (eosl) and will not be repaired.If additional information becomes available on this complaint that would alter the facts and/or conclusion, a supplemental report will be filed accordingly.
