I followed your video and repaired an Insignia NS-39D310NA17. Bought the 3 strips & a main board pulled from an unused screen damaged in shipping unit for $35.00 and put them both in and the TV came right back to life + almost every LED "button" light on the old strips had brown stains on them while the new ones were all crystal clear. I want to Thank you for your efforts because I would have had no idea what to do & a friend had a 39" Vizio with the same issue that we tried to repair with only a main board replacement & to no avail prior to it being tossed.

I'm just getting into this. I have two 55" Insignia Fire TVs. One went black at 18 months, and the second on went black at 24 months. I was successful at replacing the back light LEDs I got from Shop Jimmy for the first TV and the LED glass came right off. The second one the LED glass was really stuck on one side and I broke the glass - I should have pulled the glass off like you did here with the inner bezel attached - live and learn. But I got a bunch of spare parts. I really like these Fire TVs so I purchased a new one same size Insignia but but back lights going out like this I purchased a 5 year warantee. Thanks for showing us how to dive into these flat panel TVs, your videos were very helpful.

Hello! Hopefully this is not a stupid question, but will this black light problem be and issue for all models and TV's? I have an NS-39DF510NA19 model. I left my screen idle during a movie and when I came back, it suddenly turned super dim and I could barely see anything. I first thought that maybe it was the brightness that changed out of nowhere (even though that never happened before) so I was about to head into the settings, when it became even dimmer and well now a black screen.. I tried the flashlight like you did and I finally could see the screen. So my question is, would this issue also be related to having the black lighting screen issue thing? Thanks for taking the time to read and reply if you can, it would be a big help! Also, thanks for the very step through thorough video! :)

If you cant see the picture or menu settings when you hit the buttons, then you may have a backlight problem. Put a flashlight up to the screen while tv in ON. If you can see images on the screen.
