THE HULK Olevia 265TFHD 65" LCD Inverter Boards ???

[Michale32086]

Got in a monster.. Older Olevia 65" LED and the thing weighs like 500 lbs!!

OK, OK, only 235 lbs but it feels like 500...

Power it up and, after a few tries, it comes on.. No backlight on the left side of the screen, as you face it..

So I am thinking bad inverters.. It's a set of 3 on either side..

Ordered a replacement set, but they came in damaged.. Specifically, the metal frame that surrounds the doo-hickeys.. (see pics)

Would that affect functionality??

Thanx

Personally I would send them back or replace the transformers with some from the old inverter boards.

The material around the transformers is ferrite and this determines the inductance of the coil it surrounds.

Yea, the seller already refunded me and just told me to keep the boards...

At the very least, they might be able to help me determine if actually is the problem.. I just want to make sure that using them won't fry something.. Maybe super glue the pieces back on??

Thanx for the reply...

If you could clamp each piece together and then use rapid araldite around the break then it is possible that they should be OK. Worth a try. Work case scenario is that they may become a little noisy. Very simply the inductance of the coil is determined by the number of windings, the diameter of the winding and the properties of any ferrite material used.

Yea, that sounds good.. Since I (now) got them for free, it would be nice to confirm that the problem is the inverters.. The TV apparently has two Power PCBs, one for each set of inverters... If the inverters aren't the issue, then I might be looking at a replacement Power PCB for the left inverters..

I think I still have a full set of boards for this tv. However the tv they came from also suffered from 2-seconds to black in addition to a cracked screen so can't vouch for their condition.
