New LCD Question !!!

Hey guys - trying to get two CF28, 800Mhz off my shelf. To preface this I have confirmed that the LCD panels are working (tested on another unit). I cannot get either of these two units to power up a known working LCD panel. I have triple checked the two connectors and they are correctly plugged in. My question is first what are your thoughts and two does this sound like a mother board issue? and is it fixable (I hope). Any help or thoughts would be greatly appreciated - Just to clarify I get ZERO display - Thanks

 

Try to display on an external monitor

tried the one that is put together and negative result - what's that mean ?

 

Check the F4 on the motherboard. There is discussion somewhere here but I don't remember the tittle. Fuse again....

Wow - found the thread you spoke about - guess not a new problem (just for me I guess) I am off to fix my fuse - thanks a ton.

I did not have the power unplugged when messing with monitors - cant believe I have gone this long without doing this before - lesson learned hard way -

Thanks again

 

Thanks ohlip - all fixed - was the F4 fuse, once I found the little bugger and got back up to speed on my soldering skills they are both fixed - thanks for the info as always - it is greatly appreciated.

Lesson #352 learned - must also remove battery and unplug before swapping LCD -
