Toshiba 32av500u Sound but No backlight

[eagle00799]

Hi All, I been trying to figure out this tv and i need your help. I have sound and an image but no backights, I got a set of inverters(master & slave) from ebay and they did the same thing. I noticed on the master i get continuity on the fuse and no continuity on the slave fuse BUT there is a small brown block just above the fuses on both boards and when i check for continuity on the Slave fuse there is none but if i check the brown block i get continuity. Its the opposite on the master, continuity on the fuse but none on the block. The boards from ebay did the samething and didnt bring the backlights to life.
I read the other threads and see lots of problems with these inverters even after repacing the caps,ic's and eproms on the inverters. I have disconnected one without the other and still get no flash or anything. Any suggestions as to what i should do with this issue?

If you get continuity across the brown block (a capacitor) there is a short. Sounds like one of the inverters you got is bad.

Thanks Tom66 for the quick reply. Thats what i was thinking too. I see people that have replaced multiple parts and still had problems so i think i will try to find a slave inverter. Thanks again.
