    Building a CCFL Tester-Question on Power Switch

    I have a PSU -inverter board I pulled from a monitor with a cracked screen. I would like to use it as a backlight CCFL tester, but am wondering how to wire up an on off switch. Am i correct to solder a wire onto the ON/OFF terminal then to the ground? will this work. Right now i am using the switch that was on the monitor, but it runs through the Dsub board which I am trying to eliminate. What volt/amp rating would i need for the switch?

    Thanks...

      Guide me through repairing a Dell p2210f LCD ccfl backlight monitor
      by DanPoka
      I bought this p2210f dell monitor to fix. Schematic is the same as p2210.
      Behaviour is that monitors comes on but then backlight switches off almost instantly. If I look with flashlight I can still find the "No signal message". So definitely a backlight issue. Trying to advance the issue I proved that the protection circuit is switching off the backlight by shorting out C3 and resistor to disable the INL chip then re enable by removing the short.
      This is where it gets interesting. When I disassembled the monitor to solder leads on c3 capacitor I noticed the backlight flickered...

      Monitor Interlook switch on a microwave
      by papillon
      I *was* trying to determine the cause of a failure in a microwave oven.
      The unit is a Frigidaire Gallery model CGMV175QFA.
      For future reference, the exploded view for this specific model is available here.
      The last page of that document also has the electrical diagram which I am attaching to this message as well.

      The unit had a blown fuse when I opened it. I tested each component individually (magnetron, relays, tracsformers, etc) and all appeared to be working fine (no shorts) but the fuse kept blowing.
      Eventually, I looked at the electrical diagram...

      Aorus 17G YD laptop, broken display, could not switch to external monitor
      by ArchangelGabriel
      Hello guys! I need a little help, I have one laptop for repair, it is an Aorus 17G YD, gaming laptop. Broken display, some cable ripped form daughter board connector, case broken, battery discharged and probably locked, etc. After I did the most tedious job I ever did on soldering back the broken cables (shielded cable) , I measured resistance on CPU and GPU core, 3 and 5 v ps and any coils I find on the board, everything seems to be fine. After I plugged the charger I don't get the power led light on from the charger connection maybe because the battery is locked , but on power button I have

      AOC AG493UCX 49-inch monitor - Firmware request
      by wattage
      Hello Badcaps Community,

      I purchased a preowned AOC monitor that is not working and out of warranty. It was sold as not working. I am looking for guidance on self-repair. In particular, I am after the firmware for the monitor. At the end, I have included monitor model information and links to pics and vids of the issue.

      The problem is that it will not display a picture on any of its inputs. And the on-screen menu does not appear. The power button works properly. It powers on with the remote as well. But the on-screen menu does not appear, even when not connected to any...
