LCD BACKLIGHT REPAIR FAQ: Q. Do I need to replace the whole screen? A. No - it's far cheaper to repair
the faulty parts. Manufacturers like to think of the display screen as one
spare part unit. This makes it easy for their field service engineers to exchange displays rather than diagnose
the real fault and repair it - can save hours of engineer time. This is fine
for corporate customers with vast laptop maintenance budgets, but most
home and small/medium business users can't afford to pay £400-£700 for a
display screen. We actually repair the fault within the display. Most
repairs cost less than 50% of what the manufacturers charge.
A. A backlight fault can occur if the laptop is dropped or if a lot of
pressure is applied to the base of the LCD panel. Electronic or cable
failure can sometimes result in a faulty light. The motherboard controls
the backlight brightness and a failure there will also lead to a dark
screen. The backlight uses very high voltages to power the fluorescent
light (CCFL). The circuits can fail due to overheating, arcing or current
leakage.
A. The CCFL is a small scale fluorescent tube, similar to office lighting
tubes. The LCD CCFLs are 1.5-3mm in diameter and 30-400mm in length. They
can easily break if the laptop is dropped. They also wear out and can
start flickering or change colour to a dim red/pink. Working tubes should
emit a bright white light. A. A lot of customers wonder why the image is perfect on an external screen
if the laptop is faulty. The reason is quite simple, the backlight only
effects what you see on the laptop. Your external screen has it own
working backlight or it may be a CRT screen which does not need
backlighting. A. No - the dark screen problem can be caused by the CCFL, inverter, cables
or the motherboard. We used to sell backlight parts, but most were
returned as the customers had failed to diagnose the problem correctly and
ordered the wrong parts. Some customers tried to change the CCFLs and
ruined very expensive LCD panels. Installing a CCFL is a difficult task
even for an expert. Most first timer attempts to change the CCFL will end
with a dead screen - that is why our engineers are trained on broken
panels. They remove and correctly reinstall at least ten CCFLs before
working on a customer laptop. This job is best left to trained engineers. A. The inverter is a small circuit found under or behind the LCD panel. It converts low voltages to the higher voltages required to power the fluorescent tube. It also controls the brightness of the screen. A faulty inverter can cause the screen to flicker or go dark. Care must be taken when installing an inverter as a short circuit can kill your motherboard. Also, yanking the cables can cause damage to the LCD. Damaged cables are very difficult to repair or replace - great care is necessary. Q. I get a blank white screen. Is it the backlight? A. This is not a backlight fault. Please don't try to buy inverters and CCFLs to rectify this fault - your backlight is fine, hence the white light. This problem may be related to the video chip, cables, LCD or motherboard failure.
