    Vizio E470i-A0 No backlight

    Hello all. Just recently received a free TV (Vizio E470i-A0) from a guy at work that he was going to throw out.
    There IS Sound and a Picture, just no backlights it seems.
    How can I tell if it's a backlight issue or a power board issue?
    If I can just replace a component(s) on the power board I'd rather do that.
    I have a very cheap DMM, but should work.

      Vizio M70-D3 4K with dark spots backlight issue
      by Yanleb
      I have a Vizio M70-D3 4K with a dark spots backlight issue. It is using the Y8387248A backlight driver board.

      On this model each of the 64 transistor powers 2 LEDs. Using my TKDMR TD3H backlight tester I've determined that the backlight LED strips were the issue, and the backlight driver board was just fine. Some LED pairs required 5.9 volt at 155mA, some required 9.5 volt and some were completely open.

      I've removed the LCD panel and once the LED strips were exposed I've tested them again by connecting my LED tester directly on the test pads. To my surprise all, I've...

      Thomson 50UD6306 (TCL) Backlight Issue, starts then stops, led changed
      by Cornito
      Hello Team,

      I'm back with another backlight issue that I thought was simple, but it turned out to be more complex than expected.

      Let me provide a brief history: The TV was working well, then one day, the backlight started and shut down. I thought I had an LED issue leading to this behavior, so I replaced the LEDs with brand new ones. However, the issue remains the same.

      Next, I replaced the electrolytic capacitors attached to the LED power supply, but the results were the same. I then replaced the driver, a OB3365RP, and did it twice due to the same result....

      Vizio m601d-a3 backlight issue
      by Mectronik
      Hello, I'm working on a Vizio m601d-a3 with a backlight issue that I am having a difficulty diagnosing it. As it sits, the tv powers on, displays the Vizio symbol and with nothing hooked up it will then display no signal but you can only see half of the screen. I know it's a back light issue because the picture is there without light behind it, as I can see it by doing a light test. I've taken off the paneling and done a visual inspection. If I disconnect the tcon ribbon cable to the affected side then the entire half of the screen goes away. I've checked voltages at the LED driver from the main...

      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...

      Lenovo Thinkpad T540P - Showing at 14" inch but NOT at 15.6" inch (Backlight issue) ?
      by Acnologia
      Hello to all members of badcaps.

      Another brainstorming that i have been messing with for months as a side project.
      Bought a T540p , from eBay as 'doesn't display' ,so i thought it was either backlight fuse, or screen issue etc.

      I got it in my hands, first thing, the machine works fine boots to windows , in external screen all diagnostic are good.
      Step 1.
      Change screen (FAT - LED ) 1366x768 to 2nd one, that i know 1000% that is working ,as it has been tested.
      Machine > Doesn't give display it's really dim.
      Step 2.
      Use the same...
