Backlight issue
Backlight won't turn on fully and I have never seen this type of symptom.
MIP320FL-2 has connector CN3 doing some really weird things.
When I tap that cable coming out, the back-light activates for a split second, but then goes away. I looked at the connector joints and they were good. I re-flowed half the board anyway with no change in symptoms.
If you take a look at the first picture, you can notice that only a part of the back-light turns on. I checked every wire to make sure it had good continuity, I checked all the solder joints on the board and re-flowed, I made sure all CFL tubes had proper contact. I still don't understand how touching that wire and messing with it makes the cfl's turn on 75% for a split second. I tested in and it has 0 ohms of resistance. No clue what I am missing here.
Honestly don't work on Scepter tvs often, so just not sure what is going on.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
