    RCL3210 backlight ON OFF

    Seems to be a common problem, backlight goes on and off randomly.

    Main question: I have about 3A on the 24V to the inverter and 550mA towards the T-Con (12V from the same power supply)

    Is 3A at 24V a reasonable current for the backlight?

    Here is what I checked so far:

    1. All electrolytic caps and resonant cap on PSU ok.
    2. Controller L6599D ok (swapped it)
    3. there seems to be no overcurrent condition according to datasheet. It behaves like it, but couldn't measure overcurrent on ISENS pin. If I remove either t-con or inverter the PSU remains on, as I said it looks like overcurrent detection
    4. all readings on the output of the high voltage transformers on the inverter read the same thing, about 1kOhm
    5. Heating and cooling doesn't really have an influence
    6. It is really the 12V and 24V power supply part that turns off, main 360VDC are ok, 5V are ok, PS_ON signal towards inverter and PSU are ok.

    What does the Pson signal do when it faults out ?

      Stays on.

        L6599D on the PSU detects overcurrent, reason unknown. I decreased the coupling cap C36 from 100pF to 50pF, (could be removed too). Problem solved.

            All the outputs of the transformers showed pretty much the same value, 1kOhm.
            I didn't want to spend money trying another inverter board..

            Would be nice if one day someone could measure the current towards to inverter board so we have something to compare.

              I don't have that TV anymore here to take measurements, but I do still have the old inverter board. The transformers have to be within 3% of each other. My outputs measures 860 to 870 Ohm for a good one and the bad transformer measures 953Ohms.
              New inverter board is 11 bucks... so not much lost. Look at the part number I noted down in my thread.

                Hum, my transformers were all within 3% and had all around 1k. Maybe they don't use the exact same transfomers in all TVs. Around here (Canada) everything is expensive, then on eBay you pay shipping fees etc... Didn't think it was worth it for what the guy wanted to pay...

                  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
                  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...

                  lg 32LC46 backlight inverter board fault
                  by jimbofz
                  Hi this oldie had no backlight .after replacing caps on 24v rail ,
                  still no b/l this uses inverter type:1315 B1-16A,
                  im sure ive come across the same inverter in a samsung possibly le32r88bd ?
                  all t/x in board test ok ,so i fitted 15k and led to pin 4 of oz964gn ic
                  this allows protect to be temporary overridden.
                  b/l now comes on
                  but the left hand side of pic is gradually darker than the right side
                  i have the cct for the tv
                  but it does not have inverter cct.
                  i opened it up to inspect the ccfl tubes
                  and they dont have any...

                  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...
