    Magnavox/Phillips 37" LCD Brightness going nuts.

    A friend of mine had this TV for about 4-5 years and started getting this bright/dark thing going on. Made it impossible to watch. Opened it up and found 2 bad caps on power board. Replaced them but problem actually got worse, as in not starting at all.

    The caps I replaced were still working but it was the 2200uf cap in the back of the picture that was the problem. Replaced and is working just dandy. I hope this helps some, keep up the good fight and thanks for such a valuable resource.

      Great to hear you fixed it. "Elite" capacitors fail again, and it looks like only two of the three that failed bulged.
      Please do not PM me with questions! Questions via PM will not be answered. Post on the forums instead!
      For service manual, schematic, boardview (board view), datasheet, cad - use our search.

          HP Pavilion 15-1812nd scrren brightness issues
          by dr.thodt
          I have a notebook, HP Pavilion 15-1812ND with brichtness issues.
          When in windows, I use the the brightness keys on the keyboard, brightness goes up aprox (75%) then the screen begins to flicker and gets darker again.
          When I lower the brightness again it's getting brighter first and then it dims and the flickerings gets less.

          I already chaned the screen and LVDS Cable.

          Does anyone ever seen this problem and maybe have an idea how to fix this.
          Any help would be apprecited.​

          Thank you

          HELP - Contrast/brightness issue with subtitles on screen
          by cloudy
          Hi everybody
          Since day one I'm having an unpleasant contrast/brightness issue on my Asus laptop.
          Basically while watching movies, if subtitles appear on screen, the contrast or the brightness of the entire screen increases a lot (not sure if it'is brightness or contrast), disturbing the viewing of the movie.

          Last year I replaced my screen because got damaged and this contrast/brigthness issue persists. It happens only on the laptop screen, in fact If i plug an external HDMI screen the issue does not occour on it.

          It occours both on ubuntu and windows...

          GETAC S410 G1 brightness problem
          by sarto
          Hi everybody. I have a Getac S410 G1 with a screen brightness witch cannot be adjusted. It is at full brightness when the charger is plugged in (19V on the LCD connector) and at minimum under battery (12V on the LCD connector). Does anyone know where the problem is coming from ? Thank you.

          Panasonic 55DX600u second fault - panel brightness pulsing on right side
          by fixxy88
          After getting the backlights up and running a second fault has emerged on this TV. I was going accept defeat and move on but thought I'd have a quick look at it in case it was something simple. The right side of the display exhibits a panel brightness (not backlight brightness) pulse every 2-3 seconds in a stable timing.

          I poked about on the TCON test points and found one voltage that is fluctuating in the same pattern. VGH-ODD (Pin 47 of U10) is sitting at ~-6.5v then goes up to ~28v when the brightness pulses then goes back down to ~-6.5v again in a repeating pattern.
