Default Toshiba 20DL74 LCD TV - No Pic

Ok - kool lady & gents - Sorry Jana - I didn't mention it before - I've
been a service tech w/ Audio systems, DVDs & TVs down to component
level before, i gave it up (8 years ago) and started repairing pc's -
I've never been in a LCD tv before and it looks very different from a
reg tv - BUT - the parts inside are mostly plugin boards so to find the
defauted board shouldn't be that hard providing someone in this group
knows which board to replace or part without actually troubleshooting
the unit (by repetitive problems). When I was repairing units in the
past & cust tells me the problem with the unit in question i would know
off the back what was wrong with it without using any troubleshooting
equipment - using equipments is only to confirm your outcome unless
you have to do adjustments that require you to use the equipment.

thanks for the tip but you don't have to be a qualified electronic
tech to install this part go ahead copy and paste following link
http://www.lcdpart.com/doc/inverter_installation.html - but the
internet now a days its awesome - notice the following "it does not
require any technical skills" now im narrowing it down to the
defective part and I haven't used any equipment - just the internet,
unless you consider the internet as piece of equipment - actually it
is...

Mike - right on - are you a tech? I do second that opinion that
you mentioned - a true tech - without the mumbo jumbo "you have to
be a certified tech to---" would tell you well the inverter backlight
can be defective or what is the voltage on pin - etc....

Okay yes - I've noticed that when all my lights at home are off I
do see a very faint picture & the channel display upper right side of
LCD. So if I do see a faint picture can this be the backlight
inverter? Thanks in advance.
