Re: WestingHouse L2210NW Will not power.
Now that I see how you numbered the pins (there is no right or wrong way), my number #1 suspicion is that this transformer is bad.
Your measurements on the secondary pins (pin 1, 2, 7, and 8)
should be identical +/- 5%. PlainBill would say +/- 3%.black probe on pin 1, red on pin 2 - .872 ohms
black probe on pin 7, red on pin 8 - justs around from 1.121 to 1.580 ohms
If you watch the youtube video link I posted earlier, that transformer was out be a factor of 10x (950 ohm versus 9500 ohms).
Now you can desolder the transformer and retest out of circuit to make sure that no surrounding component are affecting the measurements (just like the video).
If the numbers are still not identical, the next problem is where to find a replacement and are you willing to pay probably $25 for a replacement?
edit: You can email
http://lcdparts.net/T.aspx
to see if they have a replacement that is not listed on their website. If they do have a replacement ask them for specifications specifically what is the resistance between the secondary pins.Last edited by retiredcaps; 08-23-2010, 05:17 PM.--- begin sig file ---

Re: WestingHouse L2210NW Will not power.
now im not getting any reading on the transformer i did get .885 black 1 red 2 and on black 7 and red 8 out of range but now i just did it again to verify and its all saying out of range.Comment

Re: WestingHouse L2210NW Will not power.
If you have any friends in the "industry", ask them to use a ring tester to test the transformer for you. It is a specialized tester and fairly expensive (> $100 I believe).
If 7 and 8 consistently show out of range on the 2k ohm scale, you have an open winding on the transformer.--- begin sig file ---

Re: WestingHouse L2210NW Will not power.
If correct, those readings indicate a bad transformer. However, I'm concerned about the inconsistent readings. It could be an intermittent connection or poor technique.
I'm decidedly old school, and find autoranging can lead to confusing readings. I'd set the DMM to the 20K ohm range and check the reading with the probes shorted together. After that, check from pin 1 to 2 and then from 7 to 8.

Re: WestingHouse L2210NW Will not power.
Both his dmm are manual range. One is the crap DT830B and the other is mastech 830l. The mastech 830l was used for the readings and done with the range set to 2k ohms.
Both dmms give a reading of 0.7 ohms when probes are shorted together.
It will be interesting to see the 20km test results.--- begin sig file ---

Re: WestingHouse L2210NW Will not power.
at 20k with both probes together i get 0.00 ohms
pins 1 and 2 = .88
pins 7 and 8 = .88Comment

Re: WestingHouse L2210NW Will not power.
That is a good match. Indulge me, try it with the meter on the 2K ohm scale. You should read about 880 ohms (.880 +- .025) on both windings
My concern is the fact that the readings keep changing. IF this is operator error, that is one thing; eventually your technique will improve. But if it's an intermittent problem with the transformer or other component, it will be difficult to locate the source of the problem.

Re: WestingHouse L2210NW Will not power.
At 2k ohms i got .880 on both
also i test each set 5 times before i post results to filter out bad readings so i have no idea why its coming out good now...Comment

Re: WestingHouse L2210NW Will not power.
Okay, the transformer is okay. Yesterday the readings were pointing to an open winding on pin 7 and 8.
Let's move on. I suggest it is time to take a look at the CCFLs. This picture album shows what a bad CCFL looks like

Be very careful taking apart the CCFL assembly.

Re: WestingHouse L2210NW Will not power.
ok so i have reassembled the monitor and turned it on. At first it worked for more then 2 seconds, about 2-3 mins then i turned it off and moved it and tried it again and it started doing the two second off again. i took a flashlight and tried to see if i could see anything on the screen and its completely black no images at all.Comment

Re: WestingHouse L2210NW Will not power.
Okay, one idea and one question.
It is possible that probing pin 7 and 8 has uncovered a poor solder joint. I suggest removing the old solder from pin 7 and 8 and putting in new fresh solder. A poor solder might explain the erratic readings on the multimeter? It is point #7 of
https://www.badcaps.net/forum/showthread.php?t=10419
That might also explain why it worked for 2 or 3 minutes until you moved it.
Question: Have you ever seen any pink hues in the last month of use? A pink hue is a sign of an aging CCFL drawing more and more power. The extra power draw will cause the inverter IC chip to shutdown the backlights.--- begin sig file ---

Re: WestingHouse L2210NW Will not power.
There should only be new solder on the joints i used a desoldering iron to remove all solder from the transformer before removing it, and i got this monitor broken it was brought in to my work for recycling so i dont know about the pink hue. i will disassemble the monitor again and re solder all the joints and ill check the ccfl's to see if they are bad.Comment

Re: WestingHouse L2210NW Will not power.
the first reading i did while it was soldered on the board after that i removed it and retested them once i soldered it back in i tested it again and got .92 on 1 and 2 and .92 on 7 and 8Comment

Re: WestingHouse L2210NW Will not power.
ok so new development i just plugged it in to test it all again with out doing anything to it. i just wanted to make sure everything was not working like it was before. this time i didnt get any power light and i did get a electrical burning smell. i took it apart and it smells like its coming from the other transformer. i did i reading on that one and i got nothing everything was out of range.Comment

Vizio e601i-A3 - Has Sound and Display, But No Backlight - Bad Power Supply Board or Bad LED Bulbs ?I was given this TV from my great uncle. He said it just wouldn't turn on one day out of nowhere, replaced the TV, and gave it to me to possibly fix and use for myself.
Upon bringing it home and plugging it up, it showed a standby light.
I powered it on and without a flashlight, the display showed the "V" but the lighting is very dim, but visible.
The screen seems to blackout and stay black, but with a flashlight I can see the display.
With my Playstation 4 connected via HDMI, and running a game I can hear sound.

Hi all!
I'm trying to troubleshoot a Microsoft Surface Pro (5th gen) model 1796 that won't power on. Motherboard model is M1007506-015. My priority is retrieving data, but the SSD is integrated so it looks like if I can't repair it it'll need to go to a data recovery company. I've done a little basic board repair before, but nothing this advanced until now. So please forgive my ignorance in advance. 😅
I found the boardview for this laptop in the forums here, and am able to open it on my PC with FlexBV.
