Re: Westinghouse A190E3-H01 no backlight / shutdown
When the backlights quickly flash, there's a very high pitched noise associated with them.
Also the high pitch noise is present with the monitor off, then it stops when turned on and then heard louder with backlight's attempting to illuminate.
So the transformers are fine? Am I wrong to have assumed there should be no reading between primary and secondary points?Comment

Re: Westinghouse A190E3-H01 no backlight / shutdown
The inverter transformer high voltage winding has on end connected to the sensing circuits to detect if the lamp are connected or not or if the lamp does not stay on, it is not isolated circuit.
"Also the high pitch noise is present with the monitor off, then it stops when turned on and then heard louder with backlight's attempting to illuminate." OK that is one of the important info. i thought it only squeals when you turn on the monitor.
I would re-cap the board at this point, also check the solder joints, rectifier diodes on the secondary side of the power transformer, etc.Never stop learning

Re: Westinghouse A190E3-H01 no backlight / shutdown
They are Common Cathode dual rectifiers, Center pin is the common Cathode, the two outer pins are Anode, they are connected in parallel (the two Anodes are tied together if look at the traces on the board) to form as one Diode for half wave rectifier circuit.
You can also try heating up the board first with hair dryer for 2~3 minutes and then plug the monitor into the outlet and see if it will function.Last edited by budm; 12-18-2014, 04:41 PM.Never stop learning

Re: Westinghouse A190E3-H01 no backlight / shutdown
There is a small startup cap (CE107?) in the primary side close to the big power transformer, try that one too.Never stop learning

Oh I also forget to ask what DC Voltage you get at the two legs of the main filter cap (120uF 400V) laying on its side.Never stop learning

Re: Westinghouse A190E3-H01 no backlight / shutdown
I'm trying to find spare capacitors to replace the little start up one.
Something to note, if I disconnect tcon the quick burst of backlights is way brighter but again same thing, quick flash doesn't stay on.Comment

Re: Westinghouse A190E3-H01 no backlight / shutdown
Ok I think there's an issue with one of the ccfls. I disconnected the pink/white cable one and plugged in the blue/white connector in its place and the screen flashed this. If I leave blue/white connector in place and just unplug pink/white I get no flash of backlights at all but you can see a "no signal" imageComment

Re: Westinghouse A190E3-H01 no backlight / shutdown
Thanks for the follow-up. So the arcing you were hearing then is from the lamp as I suspected in the beginning of the thread?Never stop learning

Re: Westinghouse A190E3-H01 no backlight / shutdown
It didn't sound like arcing just high frequency. I took panel apart and powered it on and the same noise was heard on the return lines from the ccfls so I figured I'd check the connections out and one of the wires just came apart when handling. Resoldered and all is good.Comment

Re: Westinghouse A190E3-H01 no backlight / shutdown
If you plan to do more monitors repair, I would suggest you to make at lest two test lamps, it will save so much times on finding out if you have board problems or lamps problems.
This one is really confusing too so make it hard to figure out where the problem is:

Also what's strange is even with it fixed I still can hear the high pitch noise when it's off and then you can hear frequency of lamps while on. So idk about thatComment

by triplefourthis 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... -
by Pygo86Hey Folks,
i'm not far into Monitor troubleshooting. It's my first time. Normaly i try to repair Laptops.
The Monitor is powering up. And the Backlight turns on. After a few Seconds the Backlight shuts off and the Power LED turns form Blue to Red.
I can power it up again, but it's always the same Result.
No Matter which Connection is used.
I can't see anything obvius after disassembling. No Heatspots with the Thermalcam visible.
The Powerboard is looking great. There is 12V and 5V everywhere on the Logicboard.
So, i decided to swap that Logicboard....3 Photos-

by DanPokaI 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...-

by Comp_ProHello 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... -
by flashcoderHello,
I got this TV (Westinghouse DWM40F1G1) that did not came on one day, blinked for a split second and turned off. I looked at it closer with flashlight and figured that the TV actually works, its just the backlight that does not.
There is one PCB board - all of the components are on it: TP.MS3393.P85
I took my oscilloscope and looked what is coming to the MOSFET that is switching current to LEDs - I could see that the PWM signal comes in but it cuts off almost instantly. I thought its the driver chip OB3350CP and so I replaced it.
After that the... - Loading...
