Hi all i need some help i am about 70% sure i know what it is but my friend has a HP G62-341nr laptop and his screen comes on bright most of the time and then does dark, but you can faintly see things so i think it is the backlight. Now the problem is Hp cant label the part right, in their specs they say it is an LED with no mention of it having a backlight and almost everyhere else the screen with the same part number is an LCD. I just need to make sure it is the backlight or the inverter he took it to fry's and they told him to replace the screen so he shelled out $100 for the screen and $150 for them to fix it, i thought it was the backlight from the start, any help would be awesome. Thanks guys and gals

yeah it comes on bright then goes dim after a few minutes but it has a very faint picture. So it could be the fuse that powers the LED bulb?

thanks man i really appreciate it
 
Hi, what I need from you is to find if your model is 1.1 or 1.2, I know it is a HP G62-341NR but you maybe a revision 1.0, 1.1 or 1.2. Because the model 1.1 has an inverter circuit, the screen has a CCFL for the 1.1 only. I don't know where you will find the revision, under the laptop on a label or it will be printed on the motherboard itself.
