    magnavox 42md459b/f7 backlight

    Before i order a new inverter board for this TV i was wondering if i am ordering the right thing, I bought this TV off someone to fix and use, He told me for awhile the screen would flicker and then after some time darkness, You can see things on the screen with a flash light and it will play movies from the built in blu ray you can hear them playing and see them with a flashlight I been unable to test the inverter board because its hidden behind the plate as seen in the photo and i have seen a Service bulletin for the inverter board for this model taking about a .75A fuse but i don't see how i can jump it and have it back together for testing, Any ideas before i order the inverter board?

    That is the very common failure fuse (looks like SMD resistor) in CMO inverter board. You can jump it with .22~.47 Ohm 1/4 W resistor. You can run the board without the protective metal cover installed for testing purpose, just make sure to install all the mounting screws back in place. I use PICO II fuse for repair.

      Vizio e601i-A3 - Has Sound and Display, But No Backlight - Bad Power Supply Board or Bad LED Bulbs ?
      by Tynan Dill
      I was given this TV from my great uncle. He said it just wouldn't turn on one day out of nowhere, replaced the TV, and gave it to me to possibly fix and use for myself.

      Upon bringing it home and plugging it up, it showed a standby light.

      I powered it on and without a flashlight, the display showed the "V" but the lighting is very dim, but visible.

      The screen seems to blackout and stay black, but with a flashlight I can see the display.

      With my Playstation 4 connected via HDMI, and running a game I can hear sound.

      Assuming...

      Looking for help with a Viewsonic VP230mb where the backlight comes on only momentarily
      by lostone
      Hello, I came here after finding some similar questions asked on other monitors and hope someone here can help me get an ancient Viewsonic VP230mp (23" 4:3 LCD) back to working condition.

      First a little background, I have a background in computer and electrical engineering, and I'm smart enough to know I know nothing about LCD displays and how they work. For this topic I'm as green as they come.
      When the display is turned on the viewsonic logo displays in the uppper left for 2 seconds then the screen goes black, the power LED is green (on) and when a computer is connected...
