Re: need help to test inverter transformer

Thanks for the feedback, I still wonder what the difference is between the transformers. I sure like to read the inductance of the two transformer to see if they are the same.

Re: need help to test inverter transformer

Are you shitting me? Wow, I messed with this set (like the rest of you) for ever. I did the same thing (bought two transformers) and had the same problem. It was incredibly maddening because before I replaced the transformers, I could turn the backlight way down and the set would still work, but after I removed the transformer, 2-5 sec. then no pic. Now I'll have to dig it up and order 1 more.

Re: need help to test inverter transformer

That was what I did and it works .....and still working. It could have been something else that or just a beginner's luck or a miracle.
hope you get the same luck and many thanks to the folks here.

Re: need help to test inverter transformer

Thank you for posting all this info. I tried replacing a single transformer more than a year ago and it didn't help. I got tired of looking at it in the corner of my office, so I took another look on the internet for other people experiencing this same issue. This time I bought two replacements and made sure to match the transformers as closely as possible. Fired the set up and *fingers crossed* it's working.

Re: need help to test inverter transformer

I am going to try this myself too. I want to see if this fixes my problem too. Since the guy I bought the tv from said he only replace two of the inverters.

Re: need help to test inverter transformer

Ok replace all three of the inverter on the power inverter board. Just like the guy in this thread did. Tv works perfectly. Thanks to everyone in this thread.

This is the WESTINGHOUSE SK-32H540S

fyi. This is cheaper then buying the power supply board and was easier to get. Just incase anyone else wants to do this.

Re: need help to test inverter transformer
