    Haier HL42XD1 dim backlight for a second then no backlight

    Does anyone have a true datasheet for the OZ9976? (not the family pdf)

    It puts out pulses to turn on the backlight for a second then stops working. I attached ISENS and VSENS scope screenshots (directly on IC pins). All other voltages are stable.

    Enable voltage: 3.2V seems ok
    PDIM voltage on IC : 1.6V seems ok
    12V power ok
    B+ ok

    I don't know why it stops working . I guess one of the two feedback signals VS or IS is not good. The transformers seem all correct.

    If I suspect a faulty CCFL can I DISCONNECT ONE BY ONE or is it possible to damage the high voltage transformers due to no load by doing this?

    Thanks

    I removed the feedback cable and turned the TV on. Saw a sparking in one of the tranformers, measured its secondary, it was open. Shorted its primary, TV works. The missing CCFL is hardly visible.

    Don't know for how long this will work.

    I'm assuming the CCFL is actually faulty since the transformer had the same secondary resistance as all the others.

      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...

      Thomson 50UD6306 (TCL) Backlight Issue, starts then stops, led changed
      by Cornito
      Hello Team,

      I'm back with another backlight issue that I thought was simple, but it turned out to be more complex than expected.

      Let me provide a brief history: The TV was working well, then one day, the backlight started and shut down. I thought I had an LED issue leading to this behavior, so I replaced the LEDs with brand new ones. However, the issue remains the same.

      Next, I replaced the electrolytic capacitors attached to the LED power supply, but the results were the same. I then replaced the driver, a OB3365RP, and did it twice due to the same result....

      Design of CCFL Backlight Inverters with Frame & Bar Cores

      Summary

      Portable devices, such as notebook computers and personal digital assistants are developed rapidly nowadays, which places an increasing demand on display technology. The LCD with cold cathode fluorescent back lighting satisfies the requirements on display performance, size and efficiency.

      The backlight inverter plays a crucial role in supplying the power to the lamps of these flat-panel displays.

      The frame and bar ferrite cores, described in this brochure, are especially designed...

      UN65TU700DF picture and sound but no backlight. BL tests ok but repl. PSU didnt fix!
      by triplefour
      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...

      No Backlight Macbook A1990 820-01041
      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...
