Has anyone had any luck substituting inverter transformers? I have an Asus VW246H that developed a backlight problem. Couldn't find a schematic, but didn't see anything obviously wrong with the power supply. Using a test lamp on the four lamp outputs, I found that one of them was weak. It would only light a couple of inches of the tube. I suspected the inverter transformer might be bad, but resistance readings were consistent. (1040 ohm secondaries) After checking a few more things, I swapped the two transformers and found that the problem followed. Further examination of the bad one revealed an arcing problem on one of the windings shown in the attached picture.
The p/n on the transformer is 1J.26061.021 and I have not been able to locate one. Not having the specs other than the measured secondary resistance, I am not sure how to proceed. Any suggestions?
Thanks
