Got this one in with Sienoki... Two seconds to black.
INV-ON (BLON) was high all the time. 12.08V stable to inverter.
Found bad CCFL or wiring by disabling inverter protection; one top CCFL didn't light up. (The other was fine, so the top just appeared a little dimmer than the bottom, but still perfectly watchable for a 22".)
To disable inverter protect cut the trace from Q8 to the TL494 IC.
Uses a Sammy panel.
