230Vdc (panel size dependent) BL Supply measured at diode Stripe(cathode). This will raise to approx 280Vdc
with an open string of LEDs.
Simplied BACKLIGHTS Test
1 Activate Backlights – Disconnect Lead Cable from Main to Power Supply.
2 Measure BL Supply voltage at 1+ or at the supply diode cathode (stripe).
3
Remove Panel connector and measure again to compare.
4
If voltage is high and stays the same high reading a string of Panel LEDs are open. Replace the Panel.
If the voltage is low and remains low the SMPS is defective.
