                What about just buying a cheap buck/boost converter off ebay with an amp/volt display.

                You could get a voltage reading feeding the LEDs from the tv board, and feed that voltage to it.

                I have tons of spare parts, some used, some N.O.S. ham transistors and caps. Message me if you need any parts.

                Some of the things I've fixed:
                60" Vizio-bad LED's. iBook G4: Resoldered VCC Plug. Geo Tracker ECU: Swollen / Leaking capacitors. Windows Laptop: Soldered broken LVDS wires. Dryer: Burned contact on temp switch. Oven in R.V.: Bad contacts in relays-Exploded by the looks of them! Samsung Oven: Burned contacts on Relays. MSI Motherboard: BSOD-Swollen capacitors, bad graphics card, Moved SATA Input from SATA 1 to SATA 2 plug

                    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...

                    No Backlight Macbook A1990 820-01041
                    by Comp_Pro
                    Hello all,

                    Am trying to figure out this backlight issue with this A1990 Macbook Pro.

                    Tests performed:

                    There is no backlight even with a good screen.
                    Backlight IC is receiving the correct support voltages.
                    Fuse F8400 ok
                    Current sense resistor R8400 ok
                    Backlight IC is receiving 3.3V on enable pin.
                    Backlight IC receiving voltage from PPBUS_G3H, aprox 12.5V.
                    Backlight IC receiving 5V from PP5V_G3S
                    Backlight IC BKLT_SCL and BKLT_SDA both measure 0.545V diode mode to ground
                    I2C_BKLT_SCL and I2C_BKLT_SDA both measure...

                    iPad Pro 12.9 5th Gen Backlight Issue
                    by cheebster
                    Hello, got an iPad Pro A2378 12.9 5th gen with no backlight. Got another test unit without screen, tested the screen, still no backlight with the test unit.
                    Figured out the backlight on the screen was bad, ordred a new backlight from mobilesentrix, *carefully replaced it* without damaging the lcd, oh well.
                    Final result, issue is still there, the screen has no back lights. So i'm back to square one, with 3 hours less and 100$ out, issue still on the screen.
                    The panel is still ok, i can see the apple in the middle of the screen when it kicks in, just no backlight.
                    Anyone...

                    LG Flatron 24EN33TA No Backlight When Cold
                    by canadaboy25
                    Hi all,

                    I've got an LG Flatron 24EN33TA with a backlight issue. The problem began with the monitor not powering up after sitting for a long time (overnight or during the day throughout work). When I would wake the computer up, the backlight would flick on for a second then go out. Sometimes it would take many tries to get it to come on. Once the monitor came on, it worked flawlessly until another long duration of being powered off.

                    I thought the problem would be bad caps but I checked both of the caps on the board and they are fine. I also tried powering the monitor from...

                    this tv is throwing me for a loop. do samsung tvs no longer have the backlight self test feature built into the power supply?
                    i tested the backlight with my LED tester and it lights up both strips. one of them reads 100v and the other reads 63.7v.
                    unplugged mainboard from power supply but left backlight plugged in, and then plugged psu wall power in. expected to see backlights light up but see nothing.
                    according to how ive diagnosed in the past, this would almost always be a bad power supply. replacement power supply was cheap like 20$ from ebay. but still i get not even...
