    SHARP LCD TV LC-3244E-BK: No Backlight

    TV on by main AC and then by Remote: front LED green. After about 5sec: complete shut down, LED becomes red. All repeats if disconnected and connected again to AC power.
    In this TV both SMPS and Inverter are on the same board (Power/Inverter UNIT):
    RUNTKA396WJQZ.
    I know by (some/humble) experience that fault might be in lamps. My question is: Is there a way to know for sure that that's the case and not a problem in Power/inverter unit, such as a defective HV transformer or inverter IC (BD9883) fault?
    NOTE: All three DC voltages are present: 60V, 13V and 9V.
    No bulged C's in power unit. If all 10 lamps are completely taken out would the inverter still work and should I find a HV (1700V) in secondaries or NO NO NO ...? I don't want to take the risk of buying/changing all lamps.
    Please HELP. Thanks...

    jumper C7558 and see if display is ok. if still shut off, may be some components have over current

      You may be able to force the set to power on by unplugging the set from the wall, holding then input and vol - buttons and re plugging into the wall. This has helped me many times with diagnosing sharp tvs. If the set powers on, and the backlight still fails, then you have a backlight issue, either a circuit or bad lamp, if the set powers on and has a backlight but no image, then you have either a bad mainboard or a bad t-con, if the set powers on and appears to be fully funtional, then you may have the issue laikm is referencing, something is over current, tripping the protection circuit.

        Forgot to let you know the detail of board.

        It is a IP board of part no RUNTK419WJQZ . I downloaded a similar schematic RUNK396WJQZ from website and use it as referance

        Prior to adding jumper to C7558, i replaced the below two mosfet as i suspect this is rootcause of display shut off after few seconds but have sound

        Q7502 2SK3599 replace with B31N20D ( TO220AB and use inusalator between heatsink and body)

        Q7501 2SJ655 replace with IRFS31N20D ( D2pak , but modified by using bare wire to join SMT lead and an insulator between body and heatsink).

        Now these two devices become short circuited after jumping C7558 with wire.

        TV show green LED and no display and no sound
        The situation become bad and have to trouble shoot where it go wrong

          many works were done before i decided to add jumper at C7558 to force start TV

          a) replace high voltage ballatic cap
          b) measure resistance of HV inverter transformer and found no significant difference
          c) replace C7215,C7216 and C7217 1000uF , 25V at power circuitry

          thought to replace DC-AC inverter Controller BD9883FV, but thinking if can use BD9222 as subsitution. I got this device from junk inverter board from Toshiba LCD TV.
          No data sheet from website to change pin assignment and Vcc . Ever wrote to ROHM to ask a copy but they refused to provide with the reason of customised device

            Re: SHARP LCD TV LC-3244E-BK: No Backlight

            hi. i fixed no power up, but with standby5V problem that happened after shorting C7558 as described on 8.17.2016, 9.54pm. Q2115, 2SK4096LS was found faulty and replaced with 2SK3561. Now 60V, 13V from power board is ok, but old problem still happen. Display shut off after several seconds but have sound.

            i do not want to try shorting C7558 again .

            Any solution for Display shut off after several seconds but have sound.?? Only DMM on my hand and no other equipment for troubleshoot. Need advice

              I used wire to short c7558 and the display is ok now. Found minor black strip horizontal line. I believe that one of ccfl bulb going to be faulty. So probablybad ccfl bulb cause shut down display or protect short circuit scp of bd9883

                Or one of the tubes may have become dislodged from its connector and need reseating.
                Willing to help but I'm no expert.

                  HI
                  this backlight problem as a result of old lamp or broken lamp .
                  put pin 12 as in pic to ground if backlight is off there is a broken lamp or loosen connection you must open the back light to change the lamp .

                    Sharp 80” long short flash backlight error - Help
                    by Superbee_dad
                    Hello Sharp TV experts
                    Our Sharp LC-80LE642U displays one short one long flash error code which is a backlight error. I went into service mode and there were 8 lamp error counts recorded. I reset the count to 0 and did a reset. The last monitor error cause was 16 B00014639:12. 16 is the code for backlight error. I tried to power the tv up but went back into error mode.

                    > I checked voltages on the power supply board and they all check out .. including 3.28 volts at the error pin.
                    > There is power to the cpu and T-CONN and no faults found there. The cpu has a flashing...

                    Sharp LC-58Q7330U No Backlight
                    by Misterfixit
                    This set has the known reputation of failed led backlights. The set does not turn on, but when plugged in, the power led stays lit for about 5 seconds followed by two short blinks and then it repeats itself. While shinning a flashlight on the screen, you can make out the Sharp logo, then it goes out and repeats the cycle. I measured some voltages across the led backlight connector. What has me puzzled is that when I place the negative lead of my vom on the led backlight pin connector (in which the black wire going to the leds was), I measure as high as -228volts, and then it falls to -95 volts...

                    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...

                    sharp LC-50LB601U No backlight
                    by Misterfixit
                    I have a sharp LC-50LB601U that has no backlight. It starts up fine, and has sound, however, I can only see the screen using a flashlight. I took the tv back off and measured voltages at the power supply connector CN-8601. As you can see by the picture, the led connector has 2 sets of 2 red wires and 2 sets of black wires going to the led backlights. Between each set of black wires and corresponding red wires, I measure 30 volts (pins 1 and 4) and 30 volts from pins 8 and 12. From ground to each set of red wires ( pins 1 and 12 to ground), I measure 35 volts. This voltage seems very low compared...

                    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...
