    How hard is it to sell backlight assemblies

    A couple days ago I picked up a bunch of broken tvs from a retailers. about half of them have bad panels. My intentions are to use them for parts to fix the others and sell what parts I don't need. The sizes range from 32 to 46. My question is if its worth trying to sell the gutted tvs online for the backlights. I know the shipping cost would keep me from making much money but it would keep the lamps out of the landfill and keep me from having to pay the fees to dispose of them.

    I haven't been doing this long so i thought i would ask the ones that have been doing it a while.

    UN65TU700DF picture and sound but no backlight. BL tests ok but repl. PSU didnt fix!
    by triplefour
    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...

    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...

    **Need Help Unlocking BIOS and Hard Drive on Dell Precision 5820 Tower**
    by federalhouse
    Hi everyone,

    I'm in need of assistance with a Dell Precision 5820 Tower. The BIOS is locked with "Dell Security Manager," preventing access to the HDD-1 hard drive.


    **Background:**

    I recently purchased this Dell Precision 5820 Tower from a recycler who salvages equipment from abandoned office spaces. The computer was left behind by its previous owner and was password locked. Given that it can run Windows 11, I saw this as an opportunity to upgrade my setup.


    **What I've Tried So Far:**

    iPad Pro 12.9 5th Gen Backlight Issue
    by cheebster
    Hello, got an iPad Pro A2378 12.9 5th gen with no backlight. Got another test unit without screen, tested the screen, still no backlight with the test unit.
    Figured out the backlight on the screen was bad, ordred a new backlight from mobilesentrix, *carefully replaced it* without damaging the lcd, oh well.
    Final result, issue is still there, the screen has no back lights. So i'm back to square one, with 3 hours less and 100$ out, issue still on the screen.
    The panel is still ok, i can see the apple in the middle of the screen when it kicks in, just no backlight.
    Anyone...
