    Hello,
    Сheck resistance on all transformers.

        those transformers should be within 3% of each other.

          Hi,I checked all 8 transformers between pin 1 and 8 , pin 4 and 5 and readings are:
          1.021 kohm pin1 and 8
          1018 kohm pin 4 and 5
          Could you let me know if I measuring the right pins ?

            hello,I just received the photo from Maklaud and the resistance between pin 5-6 is 08.16 mohm and pin 7-8 is 08.40 mohm
            Checked all 8 and they are the same value .

                no caps in series so measure/compare at the ccfl connector.
                very likely you have a bad transformer.common on those inverters.
                could also be a bad lamp.

                    Thanks,already measured that way and I have around 1.068k on all 8 of them.
                    To be honest I don't think are the transformers who have failed on this inverter

                      what voltages change? on the power supply when the picture goes off.

                        The BL-ON and the Dim control signals are still present when the lights go out?

                          Thank,between the connector the measurements are nearly the same 2.043k

                            Reconnected the inverter to the tv and after reading all values with the picture on and with the picture off all readings from the main board remains the same.

                              BTW, you are running the Inverter board without the shielding in place and do not see any mounting screws for the inverter board to GND the board to the chassis.
                              Do you have the LCD panel model number?
                              You may have lamps problem at this point if everything checked out fine on the inverter board.
                              May be you can try running video with the white back ground then you may be able to see if one of the lamps is not on, you will see horizontal gray bar where the lamp is not lit.

                                  Panel number is V315B1 -L07
                                  When tv go off buzzing noise could be heard from the inverter and the screen is black no light at all.Photos attached when tv working and with the black screen sound fine.

                                    Well, try that white screen test in the darkened room , may be it will be on long enough for you to see if all the lamps are on.

                                      I have tested with the white screen and looks absolute fine with all the ccfl light up.
                                      I will resolder all the transformers pins and see what happens .

                                        Try to block protection OZ964GN. Then try to remove one of eight transformers. And one by one test.


                                        And by the way...

                                        Where's your answer?
                                        Dim Voltage = ?
                                        BL-ON = ?

                                        I had a case when the backlight is blinked and inverter noise due to DIM (The problem was in the EEPROM on the main board)

                                          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...

                                          No Backlight Macbook A1990 820-01041

                                          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...

                                          LG Flatron 24EN33TA No Backlight When Cold
                                          by canadaboy25
                                          Hi all,

                                          I've got an LG Flatron 24EN33TA with a backlight issue. The problem began with the monitor not powering up after sitting for a long time (overnight or during the day throughout work). When I would wake the computer up, the backlight would flick on for a second then go out. Sometimes it would take many tries to get it to come on. Once the monitor came on, it worked flawlessly until another long duration of being powered off.

                                          I thought the problem would be bad caps but I checked both of the caps on the board and they are fine. I also tried powering the monitor from...
