                  Pull the wire BL-Dim or maybe labeled P-dim form the harness that connects the mainboard to power supply.

                  Do the backlights stay on?

                      Can we see the strips?
                      Also take the readings on that B (2) again.

                                            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...

                                            ASUS VH238T blank screen with backlight
                                            by Spoonicks
                                            Hello,

                                            I am having a problem with a ASUS VH238T.
                                            The monitor started by just going blank, but the integrated speakers, and the backlight worked. The OSD didn't pop up, neither did the messages of DVI No Signal, nor the Asus logo.
                                            Turning off the monitor, and turning it back on made no difference. But leaving the monitor off for a few hours returned the monitor back to normal. The problem will eventually return after a couple of hours.

                                            Today, it started exhibiting another symptom: the display started showing a white image, that didn't take the whole screen....

                                            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...
