Laptop LCD backlight broken?

[verymagicalguy]

Hi Guys,

I have a question about a laptop's lcd backlight that stopped working. The laptop screen's backlight flickered and died. This led me to think that it was the inverter, so I ordered a new one and replaced it. Assuming I replaced it correctly, the backlight still didn't work.

My question is, is it time to replace the lcd screen completely? Or is there another way to fix this problem.

Thanks!

Probably the cathode lamp itself has stopped working. Yes you can replace the entire display with backlight. Laptop repair centers can sell you one or you can get it through internet, but be sure that you have same type for same laptop.
