    Another case the same on this forum.

    Measure and post the voltage readings of each pin of UT6 AND gate.

      The readings are:

      1. 0
      2. 3.39
      3. Ground 0
      4. 3.39
      5. 3.39

      I could be wrong on numbering, there is no IC in this location, just pads. I've attached the image.

        I have tried a new BIOS file same result. The cable in continuity looks good to all pins with a cable.

          Ok. Appears to be not stuffed so is bypassed.

          Confirm the voltages to ground on pins 8 & 9 on the LVDS connector.

              On ERS Discord, a friend mentioned INVTPWM is for brightness. Before BIOS reset it was 3.39V and after reset it was 3.11. Hence the difference in my original readings and current readings. Is this correct?

                Cable is suspect if it's not been replaced. Voltages should be checked on LCD side to confirm.

                  Just an update to LCD issues on HP ProBook - No solution yet. I have attached PDF file which shows LCD side Pin voltages when it's turned on. Let me know what you think. Green background of a cell means there is a match on LCD. Red means V on screen but no corresponding match on LVDS.
