    Daewoo DLV_32C7SMB Defective backlight

    Have confirmed that the inverter is putting out juice (connected a small fluro tube from a hand lantern across the output and it lights OK).
    I've never delved into the CCFL tubes of a panel so I decided I've got nothing to lose - it only cost me $25 and if I get it going it will be an OK TV.
    The panel is a type LTA320WT-LF2; a Samsung I gather.
    So how are the tubes wired in these? I gather it must be in series if one tube has taken out the whole lot? Any advice regards what I should be looking for as I dismantle this unit?

    if that's 32inch then the back probably comes off for parallel backlights.
    only one tube needs to be screwed for the invertor to shutdown.

    got a foto of the invertor?

      I've stripped the panel from the rest of the hardware, but I've never done one of these before and I think I've come at it the wrong way around. I came aat it from the front and had separated the LCD panel and then the laminations under that and then I could see some sort of diffuser for the lamps. So I've put that all back to avoid contamination of the screen. Is there some secret I'm missing?

        on looking at the invertor i'm not sure now
        is the panel edge-lit from the top & bottom?

          Don't worry STJ. Looks like it's a write off. This panel appears to use tubes that are integrated into a plastic envelope. No access to individual tubes. Picture attached.
          Time to scrap out the useful boards!

            i suspect you can strip that.

            why not experiment with 12v led strips - the type that comes on reels!

              Yes, you are probably right. It would have been a very good experiment. Before I saw your suggestion I'd already stripped it and dumped it. Only so much space in my garage! But if I have the same situation again I think I would give it a go.

                B&K 707 tube tester. I need help.
                by DCJack
                Hi everyone!

                I managed to get my hands on a rough condition B&K 707 for "the best price" because it was not working. It's my first tube tester and I'm really wanting to get it up and running. I downloaded that manual that has the schematics and tested every resistor and capacitor and replaced the ones that failed. I replaced the missing 83 rectifier tube with a used but tested-good one. I also have a number 80 rectifier tube that I have used in tests before I found the 83 tube.

                Initially I noticed that I was not getting the red on-light to turn on, but it...

                "First Experience" with a CFL BL Samsung TV
                by edugimeno
                Hi There!
                I just wanted to share experiences trying to fix for the first time a CFL backlight Tv. It is samsung LE32A336J1N

                The issue it was showing was: As soon as I turned it on, the BL would turn on/off for 2-4 times and them off definitely

                I suspected the BL voltage generator or the LED strips, at least until I opened it up, cause I had never seen these TV's

                When I opened it I found a very robust TV with a complex chassis formed by mutiple arms tied together with screws. There was a large PS board with several transformers for backlight,...

                ECH81/6AJ8 Vacuum Tube Question
                by Schoenradt
                Recently I acquired an Eico HFT 92 AM/FM radio made back in 1958. The unit has had some decent modifications done such as replacing the rectifier tube with silicon diodes and replacing the main filter capacitor with electrolytic capacitors. When I powered it up FM wouldn't tune past 105Mhz. I checked the FM tuner front end assembly and found a capacitor not soldered to the coil from the Plate B+ to and ground on the other side of the coil. Some calibration was needed on the trimmer capacitor on the tuner. My question is AM is extremely weak. When I tap on the tube I get all kinds of snapping and...
