Recently the backlight went out so you could see the color and the images, but with no light. This gave me hope that the LCD was fine, it was just either the inverter or the backlight. Doing a quick search on the internet, I couldn't really tell if my inverter or backlight was the problem. There doesn't seem to be a great way to determine this, so I bought this package with the hopes that it would be at most one of these two problems.The packaging came in a plain yellow clasp envelope which is adequate. The backlight was taped inside a piece of PVC pipe to protect it. The inverter was rubber-banded to the PVC pipe. I took my old Vostro 1500, took out the battery, and googled some instructions on how to replace the inverter. I won't get into that since you can google it. I replaced the inverter, but upon powering up, no go. So the inverter wasn't the culprit. So I googled more instructions for the backlight.Let me tell you, replacing the backlight is not easy. You have to disassemble the panel and remove some foil tape and a bunch of tiny screws to separate the different layers of the LCD panel and eventually find the tiny channel where the backlight lives. Now mind you, the backlight is essentially a tiny fluorescent tube which is about 1-2 mm thick. Very easy to break, which, I found out when I accidentally broke the original tube. Eventually, I got the LCD panel back together and the panel now works fine. I don't think I assembled the panel together quite right since I now have a light leak at the bottom of the screen. But I don't remember if that was there before, but probably I didn't put everything together correctly. But it was such a pain in the butt to get this far so I'm not even going to try to fix the light leak. The tube works, but it is definitely not for the faint of heart.An easier option is to change out the entire LCD panel which is more expensive, but much easier. So it's up to you. Changing the inverter is easy, changing the backlight is hard. But overall, I got it to work so I'm happy. Total time about 2 hours. I do wish they included some instructions on how to do this so one star off for that. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Phew ! It Worked! *by Q***Y on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 14, 2012* Took me about 2 hours- would have been faster if I didn't get stuck on a couple things. First off, I had a 'dim' screen on my Dell Inspiron 1521, and after researching online, it sounded like either the back-lamp bulb or the converter- so I figured I'd just buy the combo just in case. The two items are connected by a clip with 2 wires beneath and at the bottom of the LCD screen.Taking the screen apart was pretty simple if you don't lose any screws- a magnetic screwdriver is recommended for the tiny screws.After that, I got stuck getting the main clip off of the wiring harness to the screen, which has locking tabs. The key is to squeeze the tiny metal 'wings' next to the black flared tabs , and then pull the connector out while squeezing. You don't want to force it, it should slip out with just a little pressure if the tabs are squeezed.the next part is to get the inverter and bulb out. at the bottom of the screen you will see the inverter matching the one with this combo- there's just one screw to take out, and the wiring harness. Then follow the wires - they lead to the bulb. You will have to remove 2 screws on the left and right ends, and some tape that holds the wires tight to the frame, and try to keep it in shape if you can- hang it off the side of a desk or something until you reinstall.You'll see that the bulb sits in a channel with a white 'clip' that it slides into, which has runner channels for the white wire also. Pull the bulb out by gently wiggling the ends near the wire attchments and set the new one in there and run the wires and wiggle the ends back into place.The next part is tricky. For my model at least- there's a white 'back screen' that overlaps at the bottom where you want to put the blub 'clip' back into place, and you need to have the clip settled in place in the metal frame. If you just try to press it into place, the white screen gets in the way. It took me a while, but what I ended up noticing is that the metal clip where the Inverter attaches is very thing flexible metal. So I got the clip set into the metal frame and bent it back as far as I could (without the inverter attached- do that last) , this allowed me to snap the whole piece back in without the screen getting in the way. The whole piece didn't look as tight when I was done, and the combo bulb came with about a 1/2 inch more wire than the original, but I just pinched it in there and it was no problemAfter I got it all back together, wire harness attached and screen screws all back in place- replaced battery (should come out before doing any work) and fired it up and 'viola'... nice bright new screen... works like new!! ### ⭐ The CCFL bulb is MUCH HARDER to replace than the videos lead you to belive. *by R***D on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 26, 2011* I have a Dell Latitude D820 with a Samsung LTN154U2-L03 WUXGA LCD screen. The inverter & CCFL I was sent looked like the original ones. But when I installed them the screen was dark an inch on both sides. Don't really have the time to send them back and wait for replacements so I just ordered a complete new screen. Should have done that to begin with I would have saved the 40 dollars I spent here.Note: There is nothing wrong with the parts that you will receive. And anyone should be able to install the inverter in 10 minutes no problem. But in my oppinion, getting the CCFL installed correctly might be an impossible task for 99.999% of the population. If you value your time and sanity at all just go and buy a new replacement screen. And as for the 0.001% of the people that can actually install the CCFL bulb correctly, My hat's off to you. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/83437031-15-4-wxga-wxga-wuxga-lcd-inverter-board-and-ccfl](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/83437031-15-4-wxga-wxga-wuxga-lcd-inverter-board-and-ccfl) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-06-06*
