Chosen Solution
Hi everyone, The backlight of my laptop’s screen stopped working. I can see that the display is still ok. When I power on the laptop (or press the display on/off button on the keyboard while it’s already on) the backlight resurrects for a split second and goes off again. This happened everytime those two conditions were met. What do you think my options in this situation are? If necessary can I still find a matching inverter board and/or the light sources? (The laptop is 6 years old.) (And at this point I am not sure whether I am able to accomplish this level of repair. I think I can replace an inverter board but no idea about the light source) If the light source is a CCFL would you advise me to replace it with LED’s? How should my roadmap be in this situation? Thanks in advance…
I’ d say that you have a defective ccfl lamps and not the inverter problem. If the inverter is defective you wouldn’t have a backlight when you press the display on/off.
@sanon start by replacing the inverter. You cannot substitute a LED backlit LCD. different technologies and it will not work for your computer.
