    faulty backlights digitrex ctf4071a

    I have a digitrex ctf4071a with a samsung lta400ha07 panel, the inverter is a inv40n14b.
    the backlights come on for 2 seconds then go off. looking at the front only the right half of the screen illuminates.
    I've changed the inverter twice and also the PSU as I had a spare, I've also changed the t-con as it has an extra wire to the inverter, so I thought it might be worth a try.
    It looks like the lights themselves are faulty. my main question is, is this likely?
    I've not come across many (if any) faulty backlights before.
    also the patten does not point to one particular bulb
    the bulbs are U shaped with connections directly to the inverter.





    does anyone have a smashed panel with good lights?

    thanks

    Re: faulty backlights digitrex ctf4071a

    ive opend up the back light and found one cracked bulb. it didnt light up when the inverter powered up,when i tried to remove it it was cracked at one end. the bulbs are straight not curved as i thought. does any one have a scrap 40in panel? the bubls are 900mm long (glass part, with 5mm wire each end) someting close would do (10mm either way)

      Vizio E55-E1 bad backlights or bad inverter?
      by x_orange90_x
      I just got this tv today and it appeared to have no backlight on. After taking off the rear cover and checking again in the dark I can see that MAYBE one quadrant is lit.. But still it's quite dim. I was going to check the LEDs with my tester, and I found LED 1 and LED 2 + pins on the wire from the inverter, but I couldn't identify a ground. Nonetheless I tried using a mounting screw on the inverter board and also the chassis as ground but regardless my tester reads 300 which is what it reads when there is no voltage draw.

      I don't know how exactly to test the inverter itself. Is it...

      inverter H tree driver imbalance in an AC inverter
      by eccerr0r
      My cheap crappy 1KW grid tie inverter (GTI) seems to keep blowing IGBTs. When I first got it, it had two failed IGBTs. It used four 60N100's (TO264). I bought 5 from a dubious source (fleabay) and replaced just the two that were dead. The GTI worked for almost two years but recently one of the two that I replaced failed. Since I had three spares, I replaced the dead one. Then a few weeks later it failed again. Weird. Well since I bought dubious China-sourced IGBTs from fleabay it could very well just be a mixture of fakes. I replaced it, but then a day later it failed again! I put in the last...

      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...

      APSINT3636VR 3600W APS INT Series 36V DC 230V AC Inverter/Charger schematic
      by Gentian
      I have a tripp-lite aspint 3636vr inverter charger which blow some of mosfet transistors. I replaced them repaired also the driver circuit and tested but the mosfets burn again.

      It work very well as inverter and also as charger if I let the rear switch in auto mode (inverter) and charger only(charging) but in auto when I connect the feed line 220V AC first time it pass ok to line and start charging the batteries but when I remove the feed line it pass to inverter mode and if I do it again the second time when passing from charging to inverter the Main transformer start making a...

      Samsung UE48H6410 replaced Mainboard but backlights doesnt go on
      by max789
      Hello, I have a problem with my Samsung UE48H6410SSXZG with the main board BN41-02156A and the power board BN44-00709A. Everything seemed like this, the TV could no longer be switched on, the standby LED always flashed 5x2 times. Backlight was off and no sound from TV. Also made the flashlight test and there was no picture.

      I made the following tests:
      1. Disconnected the main board from Power Board = backlight works.
      2. Connected the main board and disconnected the T-Con = backlights does not work.

      So I ordered a main board from Ebay also BN41-02156A but from...
