Need help with samsung le37r88bd inverter.

Hi all, just need a but of help diagnosing this issue I have got a Samsung le37r88bd 37" lcd tv that originally the inverter wouldnt start the backlights would flash then it would shutdown, I fixed this by reseating all the connectors and plugging in the little 2 pin wire that goes in to the bottom of the inverter as it was unplugged, now the inverter will start but there is a very loud buzzing noise and eventually it will shut down I will take a video and share the link to it, I would like to know what you think is up bad ccfl or bad transformer, now the bitch here is I left my muiltmeter at my uncles and I cant collect it till the week end and would like to have a rough idea of whats wrong.
The model of the inverter is a darfon 4H.V1448.481/c1
The transformers are 6026b's

That sounds like high voltage arcing, do you also smell OZONE.
I would inspect the inverter transformers really well and see if all the legs are solder, also check the high voltage windings of the transformers.

Never updated this so here is what I did:

Received a Le37R86bd smashed screen so I stole the backlight assy out of it and put the Lcd out of this one into it and boom all working I also recapped every cap on the psu including primary. This set has been in my living room for over a year now on nearly 12 hours a day working great. Unsure why the lamp broke like it did originally maybe done in transport, but at least I fixed it
