Display not working
I replace a laptop screen on a Inspiron 1545
The Screen i replaced was cracked
There is no inverter on the model laptop
The replacemant screen is light almosted dark. if i plug in a external screen it works fine.
Replaced the video cable on the laptop it is still light.
I put back old cracked screen it is farded the same as the replacement screen.
I am confused. What could be wrong with the laptop. I get light image from any combination of cable and screen.
My inspiron 1545 has a WLED display which doesn't need an inverter.Older 1545 are fitted with CCFL displays which do require an inverter (to produce the high voltage for the bulbs).
The inspiron 1545 has a tiny fuse on the mainboard to protect it from a shortcut caused by a faulty screen.It is possible that the cracked screen blew up the fuse.

Hi DavidLouis,
Welcome to the Community. I checked on the Inspiron 1545 and i see this system does have a inverter board for the display. For help to replace LCD for Inspiron 1545 you can use the link below:
