    Hitachi 42hxt42u no backlight

    Bought telly at boot sale, seller said it was working but turns out he was lying!

    Anyhow turns on but screen remains dark. When I shine a torch through it you can see it displaying an image.

    Anyone had any expieriance with this set or any suggestions where to start before I order a backlight perhaps needlessly.

      can you start by posting pictures of the boards used in the tv also if you can take the voltage readings on the power supply connectors we can then advise you more

          LG L192WS-BN backlight turns off after 1 second
          by www
          I am testing an old LG L192WS-BN monitor I have that gives an image, but has a backlight issue. When you turn it on the backlight turns on 1 second and it turns off, turns on again, 1 second and it turns off and stays off. Using a flashlight I can see there's still an image.

          I replaced a bulged cap on the main board, but made no difference. I also got another exact same model monitor that has a broken ccfl (the connector got ripped from the panel and the main screen connector is also broken so I can't use this panel to test), tried using the main board from this one, same issue....

          A1466 MacBook Air 13" 2017 Backlight issue works but then turns off
          by Stephen
          Hello, got a weird MacBook Air here
          board looks fresh and no water damage, backlight works and turns on and stays on when installing OS etc. However, when the os is installed and when the system files are loaded before the login page the backlight goes out. I have wiped it, NVRAM reset, etc and even took some other instances and this blows my mind, never seen this before. Backlight just turns off once the OS is loaded. Anyone come across this and if so what would be the cause? I am certain its a board issue since I tested the LCD on another board and it stays on. Again the backlight works...

          Samsung QE50Q60AAUXXH turns off as soon as backlight turns on
          by kalemaroni
          Plugging the power in will turn on the backlight after about 5 seconds and then immediately shuts down.

          If I unplug either of the two cables with the yellow outline in the picture the backlight stays on and the startup sound plays but no image. Any ideas how to proceed with this please?

          Philips 40 PUK6809/12 Backlight turns off after 10-20 seconds
          by alpersen
          Hello
          Mother called and said TV turns off after switching on. So after turning on Philips logo shows and probably 10-20 seconds image disappears, sat receiver is connected and sound is heard from source. So I turned on my phones light and I can see the image it seems backlight was off after some time. I dis assembled the cover hoping to see a distinc cap blown or leakage. Here are photos I took (I was after 22:00 pm and maybe some of them are dark). Should I order and change caps on the power circuit or what would you recommend? Thanks...

          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...
