monitor parsingLED display is an on-screen display technology that uses an LED panel as a light source. Currently, a large number of electronic devices, both small and large, use LED display as a screen and as a medium of interaction between the user and system. Modern electronic devices such as mobile phones, televisions, tablets, computer monitors, laptop screens, etc. Replacing the backlight on the monitor is a popular upgrade for the device.

A cold cathode fluorescent lamp is a light source classified as an electronic component. In the simplest sense, a fluorescent lamp is a gas-discharge light source that generates an output signal from a stimulated phosphor coating inside the shell of a glass lamp. It can be described as a converter that converts electrical energy into light energy.

The main advantage of the LED monitor is its efficient and low power consumption, which is especially necessary for portable and rechargeable devices such as mobile phones and tablets.

REFERENCE! The LED screen consists of several LED panels, which, in turn, consist of several LEDs. LEDs have numerous advantages over other light sources that can be used as an alternative.

In addition to energy saving, LEDs produce greater brightness and greater light intensity. The LED display is different from the vacuum fluorescent display used in some consumer electronics, such as car stereo systems, VCRs, etc., and therefore these two should not be confused with friend.

Here are some simple steps on how to replace a burned-out LCD backlight with a new working one to bring your LCD back to life. Inevitably, each screen goes blank over time, but the process of bringing it into working condition is not very complicated. As long as you are careful, this can be done successfully and without too much drama. As a rule, this is a very cheap repair, usually only about 1000-1500 rubles.

IMPORTANT! First you need to disassemble the monitor body; It depends on whether it is an external monitor or a built-in laptop. But before disassembling the case, turn off the power!

Replacement Instructions

Usually, to get inside the external monitor, you just need to remove all the screws on the back of the display and take it apart. Pretty simple. It may seem a little harder sometimes, but not impossible. First open the laptop and find all the screws (sometimes they can hide under the rubber feet). After you unscrew the screws, many times you will also need a flat-head screwdriver to gradually open the case. Be gentle, but do not be afraid to use some power. After removing the back of the computer, disconnect the screen from the converter. Disconnect the screen completely from the chassis by removing the remaining screws.

Now the fun part begins (the part where you should be most organized and careful!), Disassembling the LCD itself.

At this point, make sure that each item LCD displayThe one you are shooting is in perfect order so you can easily assemble it after replacing the lamp. The disassembled LCD does not really require too many steps to get to the lamps, but in many cases you need to remove several layers of transparent sheets that are used to evenly distribute light across to the screen.

Locate and remove the screws that hold the screen assembly. Disassemble the assembly, including any transparent sheets in the path of the cold cathode tubes.

IMPORTANT! At this point you should be very careful. Lamps contain mercury and are very fragile. This step is not so difficult, just be patient. Do not make any effort when removing, otherwise they will break.

replacement of lamps with LEDsTake the LED strip and insert the lamp exactly where the old tube was. Again, be careful and this step will be easy.

After inserting the LED strip and routing the cables correctly, assemble the LCD as you disassembled.

After you assemble your display, reconnect the inverter and any other cables that may have been connected to the display. Then, before you fully assemble the case, check your display to make sure everything is in order.

NOTE! Be VERY careful with open connections and cables, especially with the inverter. Touching the wrong part can not only damage you, but also damage the display.

Make sure all your connections are tight and there are no extra screws. Finish assembling the monitor case, and you're done!
