    Ensure that all cables are securely connected and not loose. Plug out/in to ensure you have a secure connection. If image comes in when you wiggle the cables, it could be a faulty cable or the connection head. You might need to replace the cable/head. If the connector port on the monitor is loose, you might need to replace the monitor as most manufacturer regards damaged connector as physical damage not covered by warranty.
