Hitachi 19" monitor - squeal from POWER SUPPLY.

I've been maintaining Sun equipment for over a year and have seen a common
failure mode for the Hitachi 19" Monochrome monitor.  When this failure
occurs there is a high pitched squealing coming from the power supply
module in the monitor.  (No, it is not the flyback transformer.)  It is
often an intermittant problem which can be temporarily "fixed" by power
cycling the monitor.

Does anyone here recognize this problem and know the solution?

Thanks in advance.
