Default Kogi L4BX no worky

Hi,

Got a 14" LCD screen that has no picture. Anyone have any info on this?
Can't find a schematic anywhere. Power light comes on so I know the
powerpack is working.

Thanks!

Don't everyone jump in at once on this one, ok?

Possiblity: Is the backlight dead and LCD operable? Can you see a very
faint image if light's shone on it?

If so, it's possible the inverter or light itself are malfunctioning.
Possibly fixable with a new light, or fixing the inverter.

Aside from checking that everything's tight and there are no obvious
damage points (capacitors which are bulging, for example), there's
little a repairman can do to fix an LCD. If the screen's broken, it
gets replaced as a single part, and it's likely more expensive than it's
worth.

Start looking for rebate-specials on 15" LCDs
