Re: help to solve back display in 2sec
I am a learning student on this site.One of the things I have learned is to describe the problem thoroughly as you can.Post the clearest photos as possible of the front and back of both boards,I have had good luck with windows live photo gallery it lets me resize the photos to keep under the 2000 by 2000 limit.
And then keep your fingers crossed that someone comes to your rescueWhatever I do, I consider it a success, if in the end I am breathing, seeing, feeling and hearing!

Re: help to solve back display in 2sec
I guess it's up to me to resurrect this threat. I have a Samsung 920nw in my possession with the same problem as the original poster; the display turns on fine and displays the input signal for about 1-2 seconds, then the display goes "black." The power LED stays on when the display blanks out. My first thought was to replace the capacitors on the combination power / inverter board. I ordered and just completed replacing all of the capacitors on this board.
The display problem has not changed. It still blanks out after about a second. I read in another post on Badcaps that something on the inverter board is not working correctly. I believe I read that the lamps operate in a loop, with the top two lamps (plugs) being driven by one part of the inverter board, and the second set of lamps (plugs) being driven by the other part. This would seem to make sense since it looks as if there are two sets of components on the inverter side of the board. Unplugging the top two lamp plugs and powering on the monitor causes the image to stay active for about 3-4 seconds. The same is true if I unplug only the bottom two plugs.
Any assistance or feedback would be appreciated. I have trolled these forums quite a bit over the last two weeks, so if this problem has been covered on another tread I apologize.
Thanks in advance!

At this point, we will need good clear focused photos of the entire top and bottom of the power/inverter board. A photo of the logic board would also be good. Also, what brand/series of caps did you use as replacements?

2) Post pictures after reading misc suggestion #1 on the guide above.
3) What brand and series did you use for replacement caps?
4) Section #4 and #5 may be other causes for 2 seconds to black.--- begin sig file ---

What brand and series of cap did you use for replacements? Bad caps (failing, or junk) are a known cause of the problem.
Another possible cause is the CCFLs, and their associated wiring. One troubleshooting method is to substitute known good CCFLs (just hook them up to the inverter, no need to open the panel - yet.
PlainBillFor a number of reasons, both health and personal, I will no longer be active on this board. Any PMs asking for assistance will be ignored.
Never be afraid to try something new. Remember, amateurs built the ark. Professionals built the Titanic.

Re: help to solve back display in 2sec
The capacitors used to repair the power board were a combination of Nichicon and Rubycon. Pictures of the inverter / power board are below.
Now that I've taken a second look at the video board, I see the capacitors on it are Samxon and Su'scon. Perhaps these require replacement as well.Last edited by ben3843100; 01-31-2011, 07:39 PM.

Re: help to solve back display in 2sec
Try this for the secondary inverter transformer test.
With power off and lcd unplugged, measure the resistance of secondary inverter transformer pins. If you have a manual range multimeter, set it to 2000 ohms.
Measure the ohms between the 2 yellow dots. Report measurement. Do the same for 2 red dots. They should be within 3% of each other.--- begin sig file ---

According to the measurements below, they seem to be reading within 3% of each other.
Yellow Dot Measurement: .609
Red Dot Measurement: .598
I reassembled the boards and plugged the LCD into a PC. I see my designated wallpaper for about 1-2 seconds, then nothing. I used a bright LED flashlight to look at the screen from multiple angles and didn't see a thing after the screen went dark. I did notice, however, that when you unplug the VGA cable with the power to the LCD on, the unit displays "no signal" without power cycling the screen. If you plug the VGA back in with the monitor powered on, it flashes my the wallpaper for 1-2 seconds and goes blank again.

Since you see the wallpaper, the logic card is working fine.
This leaves the most likely candidate as the ccfl lamps and/or its wiring. See this photo album for examples of bad lamps or wiring.

Looks like these are two recommended links from other threads.
