    How to Test : Bad Backlight Driver OR Faulty_Strip

    Hi

    Its a "dumb" question , and an answer probably available somewhere ..

    Assume no Backlight Tester or exposed Strips , PSU has V/A Outputs Table.

    This transforms the question to :

    How to Test the Driver in uncovered TV ?

    Thx

    TCL 43S435 NO BACKLIGHT ISSUE, LEDS TEST OK
    by thetonywarren
    I have a TCL 43S435 with no backlights. I contacted ShopJimmy and they said power supply. I got replacement power supply, but still doesnt work. I have confirmed that there is an image with flashlight test. I have also verified that the led strips work when I probe them with LED tester. Any ideas would be helpful. I am also geting a double blink on the status led when trying to turn it on......Nothing on the power supply looks suspect, and caps look ok. Where should I start to test......Thanks!...

    LED DRIVER KEEPS DYING
    by osrex
    Hello, this is my first post and im just a beginner, so be easy on me guy. thanks



    i have a LED chandeilier that switches colors from white to cool white to warm when toggling the switch, it has 24 LED arms, each arm is 30 CM length.



    i have no datasheet at all for the LED lights, all i have is its length.



    long story short, testing the chandelier on the ground, and it works fine for 1 - 2 - 6 hours, no problem.



    as soon as i fix the chandelier to the ceiling and bury the driver inside the hub,...

    Guide me through repairing a Dell p2210f LCD ccfl backlight monitor
    by DanPoka
    I 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...

    No Backlight Macbook A1990 820-01041
    by Comp_Pro
    Hello 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...

    Vizio E55-F1 dark backlight zones. LED failure or Dimming Zone Driver?
    by howardc64
    Problem

    Fixing a dimming zone TV with LEDs not lighting up. Dimming zone circuit introduces added variable to diagnose LED and/or Dimming Zone Driver board? Some 1/2 rows of LEDs appears to be out in active dimming zone off AND some brightness flickering with active dimming zone high while playing changing video



    Model & Board Pics



    Conflicting Spec

    Vizio indicate this TV has 10 dimming zones. However, LED strips and Zoned light driver connector suggest 12
