IT SOUNDS LIKE THE INVERTER BOARD HAS FAILED, I AM ASSUMING THAT THE SCREEN REMAINS BLACK. THIS BOARD PROVIDES THE BACK LIGHT ILLUMINATION. BUT WHERE YOU COULD OBTAIN SPARES IS ANY ONES GUESS. HAVING WORKED AS AN ENGINEER FOR OVER FORTY YEARS, I AM ALWAYS HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THESE WEIRD MAKES. MY ADVICE IS ALWAYS BUY A WELL BRANDED MAKE LIKE TOSHIBA OR PHILIPS, THEY MAY COST MORE BUT AS LEAST YOU HAVE SOMEONE TO TALK TO WHEN YOU NEED SPARES. EVEN THO I CAN REPAIR THEM MYSELF, I WOULD NEVER BUY A NON BRANDED UNIT. MOST OF THE TIME YOU ARE JUST THROWING YOUR MONEY AWAY. LIVIJOELFOX@HOTMAIL.CO.UK
