    Sanyo DP-42849 backlight flashes on then stays off

    My dad and I picked up a non-working Sanyo DP 42849 TV from craigslist a couple days ago. When we turn it on, after around 5 seconds, the backlight will flash on but immediately shut itself off again. We can see that the LCD panel is working when it flashes on.

    We've been searching for similar problems for a while, so we already tested a lot of it. It appears that the main board works, as well as the transformer for the backlights.

    A couple of the readings we got:
    BL_ON: 3.3v
    Transformer pins 5<->10 114.3 ohms
    Transformer pins 6<->9 65.8 ohms

    I don't remember the voltage/resistance readings we got for everything else, but I can re-do those and post what we got. My dad thinks that the problem is in or around IC301. We soldered a small wire to pin 16 (Vcc) and is it getting around 15 volts with the TV powered on.

    The numbers on the power board are DPS-260LP, and on the mainboard are 1AA4B1ON22900_A

      I found a datasheet on DDA002C, the chip on our board is DDA002B. Hopefully it's similar enough to do some more troubleshooting.

      http://www.datasheetlib.com/datashee...conductor.html

      I also thought I'd add that we do get sound from the TV, it's just the backlight that doesn't work. I am aware that there have been several threads with the same problem (and another new one as well). I have gone through them all but haven't been able to find anything that would help us fix ours.

          have you tested the inverter transformers?

              I'm not really sure the best way to do that. The backlight only flashes on a few seconds after the TV is turned on, so it doesn't seem exactly like most other symptoms. I've checked the resistance between pins with what others have reported on good transformers, and ours seems the same (114 ohms, 66 ohms).

                  I have the same problem mine will flip on with the back light then shuts off. If I try this three times it will stay on for about a min but it will have a loud scream from the top part of the power board. Not sure what to do.

                      I am having the exact same issue. Any progress with the TV ?

                          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...

                          LG 32LG3000 TV, three red light flashes, then the backlight turns on, but no picture
                          by ItepK
                          Hello everyone! I've found this television, and I began troubleshooting it.

                          First, the television kept rapidly power cycling. I've warmed up the capacitors with a hairdryer, and after 3 dimmed red blinks, the backlight turned on, then turned dim, and no picture was present on the screen.

                          I believed that this was caused by a bad power supply producing insufficent power (I've measured 3.5v on the 5.2v rail), so I've blindly recapped the board.

                          After the recapping, all the voltages stableized, however, the issue in the title still remains.

                          I could...

                          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...

                          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...
