Re: OT- need some help with backlight
Can anybody here help me troubleshoot a problem with a non-working backlight? I know my way around a VOM and a soldering iron, and I understand about working with high voltages. Or if you can just point me to a site with info on the subject, I would highly appreciate it. I'd really hate to spend $90 on an inverter, when it's only bad CCFL tubes. Probably best to contact me off-list. Thanks! JR I cant tell you how to diagnose one other than looking at it. If you need a new backlight, www.digikey.com or www.jkl.com sell them.

As far as I can tell, look for one that is the same size as the old one. I honestly am not sure if all backlights have the same electrical specs. Alternatively, find a broken screen unit and swap the backlight out. -- G-Books is sponsored by http://lowendmac.com/ and...
