how do you identify which backlight is blown? I have two new backlights but my monitor has 4 so I don't know how to tell which ones are blown.
 
its an LCD monitor. The screen doesnt light up anymore but if you hold a flashlight up to it yuo can still see the image. So I came to conculsion that backlights were blown. Instead of paying someone 100 dollars to fix it I decide to order the 13 dollar backlights and replcae them myself. The only problem is I can't tell which ones are dead. making sense yet?'
 
whhhhhhoooa there...back that train up ! its not the lamps, id bet on it ! its most likely your power inverter to the lamps! blown fuse most likely! did you check the voltage to the lamps? is ther any? ohh and WATCH OUT ! ! ! that " IS " high voltage!
what is it in ? lap top?
 
good call there Smokin-A.I.!! if you can't tell which light is burnt out right away then more than likely it isn't burnt. It would be sort of like any other burnt light.....slight darkening or scorch mark inside the light itself.
