If the reading is not a dead short then the FET is good.
You can solder it and test the supply.
Let's hope every thing goes the way it was supposed to.
thank you very much. was very informative and fun. i really appreciate your help and will still be contributing to the programming parts of this forum. and if i ever need your help with a future project. i'll let you know
I'll tell you about the EN and DIM.
EN is Enable for LCD backlite
DIM is for Dim to adjust backlite brightness. It can be dim or bright.
I have to see the picture to know the effect that is showing in the LCD.
What we have worked so far proved that we got the supply working.
A missing secondary voltage will be piece of cake.
I donno when I will see you .
As I will be dead for 2 days atleast.
I can hardly see straight right now.
Yaaaaaaaaaan!!!
A blank screen in the sense that only a dim black screen is visible.
No snow means trouble, but can you see the on screen menu and does the TV stays on as long as you want or does it goes to standby soon.
If it goes to standby does the red led indicator flashes after it goes to standby.
Observe these for me
i'm about to take off to school. doing homework right now. it is a blank white screen. will take a picture when i get back. but i thought maybe i was plugging in things wrong cause the tv did work and now its just the blank white screen.
