    Novice question about lcd inverter testing

    Hello,

    I found such comment on the internet: "The inverter is designed for an RF impedance, not to drive into a simple DC resistive load like a multimeter, and I wouldn't be surprised if that voltage test has ruined more than a few inverters."

    In youtube videos, I've seen people investigating a "living" inverter using a multimeter. I would like to know if we can damage "living" inverter board by touching the multimer(oscilloscope) needle to the wrong smd element?

    They are checking INPUT voltage and BL/ON signal.

    It's the OUTPUT voltages to the lamps that can destroy your meter.

      I found this YouTube video on how to test a inverter type compressor
      It also shows how to make a testing device to test the inverter type compressor

      Sharp Aquos LC-46E77UN inverter testing
      by JFarm
      I picked this TV out of a trash pile. When I plug it in I can hear the relay on the power supply “click” almost immediately, and then 7 seconds later there is another “click” and the power/OPC LEDs start to flash: two pulses on the power LED, one on the OPC LED. I didn't notice any sign of life from the backlight, but more on that below.....

      The service manual () says this is a “DET_10V error: UR10V or A9V is not applied”, but after checking several voltages I believe the power unit is tripping off due to an overload as soon as the backlight tries to come on; this kills...

      Vizio E55-E1 bad backlights or bad inverter?
      by x_orange90_x
      I just got this tv today and it appeared to have no backlight on. After taking off the rear cover and checking again in the dark I can see that MAYBE one quadrant is lit.. But still it's quite dim. I was going to check the LEDs with my tester, and I found LED 1 and LED 2 + pins on the wire from the inverter, but I couldn't identify a ground. Nonetheless I tried using a mounting screw on the inverter board and also the chassis as ground but regardless my tester reads 300 which is what it reads when there is no voltage draw.

      I don't know how exactly to test the inverter itself. Is it...

      APSINT3636VR 3600W APS INT Series 36V DC 230V AC Inverter/Charger schematic
      by Gentian
      I have a tripp-lite aspint 3636vr inverter charger which blow some of mosfet transistors. I replaced them repaired also the driver circuit and tested but the mosfets burn again.

      It work very well as inverter and also as charger if I let the rear switch in auto mode (inverter) and charger only(charging) but in auto when I connect the feed line 220V AC first time it pass ok to line and start charging the batteries but when I remove the feed line it pass to inverter mode and if I do it again the second time when passing from charging to inverter the Main transformer start making a...

      Insignia NS-LCD19-09 (PS OK, Inverter problem?)
      by valvashon
      For some reason I'm just not going to let this 19" TV defeat me. I guess because I have a schematic to work from I feel like I'm oh so close.

      History- while adding a turn-on circuit I let a small screw roll under the power board. Worked through all of that circuitry, probably replacing a MOSFET and PWM controller that were not bad but I was following the service manual. Finally figured out that the power supply is in working order when the inverter section (for the backlights) is disconnected. When the +12 supply to the inverter is disconnected the +12 and +5 will come up...
