    Lenovo L340-171RH no backlight

    Customer dropped in their Lenovo L340-171RH (motherboard ID FG541 / FG741 NM-C361) because they had tried to repair their smashed screen themselves and now there is no backlight.

    I confirmed the screen and cable worked in another laptop.

    Anyone have any ideas of where the backlight circuitry is on these models and what the chip might be called, or any other pointers as to how to repair this?

    Can you see the graphics (without the backlight) ?

    With extreme care, meter in DC volts (30v or higher) -> measure the voltage to ground of each pin on the LCD connector.

    Post the measurements and their pin number.

      Hi, to start just check the fuse F3, you should have 20V on both sides.

        Lenovo V15 G3 No Backlight after liquid damage
        by techpointhull
        Good morning guys,

        I have a Lenovo V15 G3 that came in with liquid damage. The damage was very minor and some corrosion on the IO board where the power switch was. After cleaning both the motherboard and IO board in alcohol, the laptop turned on and I had backlight for about 3 seconds but nothing further. I don't have a boardview for this laptop (Have requested this in the Schematic Request section), however from previous experience on Lenovo laptops I have checked pins 1, 2, 3 on the EDP connector. When the battery is connected only, I get 8V and when AC adapter is connected, I get...

        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...
