Hi there,
I wonder if you could advise me on a ccfl tube problem?
I have a dell inspiron 8600 laptop with a 15.4 wuxga screen and the ccfl tube stopped working. After asking for some advice, I replaced the independent inverter with a new one but still nothing so I stripped out the ccfl tube.
I plugged the inverter and ccfl tube back in, independent from the lcd screen so I could see what was going on and I found that the tube lights up for just a split second when I power on the laptop. Then nothing. This will happen every time the laptop is restarted, just a brief, split second flash from the tube which is around 5 years old.
I am currently using a second desk standing lcd through a vga cable and that works perfectly so I guess my graphics card is fine?
Can you comment on what you think the problem may be?
Many thanks in advance,
Paul
