Re: Vestel 17IPS71 and MP3394S Backlight Problem

It is weird as the MP3394s has a protection for each LED line so in case of failure only the affected line should go off. The complete shut down happens for overheating as the power drain on the ic pass the 720w it is stated for. As earlier stated the 17ips71 in my tv as well been using led1 and led2 merged as the led3 and led4: to limit the power draining I removed the 0 ohm resistors used to bridge the lines so only 1 line is used for each set of leds and now the TV works stable. Obviously I can now see one led strip is not working...
