      Got one and does exactly what it's supposed to do. Can test whole string or each LED individually. Just another tool in the arsenal.

          Component tester which one is worth the money from it capability to test and identify
          by sam_sam_sam
          I am thinking of buying a component tester but I want to get the most out of the device for the money that I am going to spend

          Any idea but I would prefer actual use of the device it good points and it short comings be completely truthful about the review of the device

          There are so many versions of this type of device and I do not have enough information to make a good decision at this point

          When I bought my battery testing machine I had some information to go by because of electrical experience with auto electrical experience in this field job wise (...

          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...

          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...
