    I am very experienced but don't have tools to diagnose... Can solder very well but need to know what to replace. Need schematics, or pics or new parts...

    If you have the skills. The capacitors shouldn't be that difficult to recognize. Just look for the ones that are bulging and replace those.

Most likely bad capacitors. They can be replaced but I wouldn't recommend a novice trying to do so. It requires soldering skills. If you can get into the monitors and check the inverter boards to see if any of the caps look like the ones in this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oDGjWOabJ2E that would be a start. At least then you're armed with knowledge before getting overcharged by someone who wants to charge you a couple hundred bucks to replace a couple $4 caps.
Hope this helps.....

Hi, im from Kota Kinabalu and have this acer aspire 4315 with NO display (Dimmed display) . It is working fine when i use an external monitor. Fyi, i have a 2 unit used working fine power inverter and lcd...

unfortunatly there are three pieces involved in the dimming of the screen. 1) the lcd (you tried that) 2) the inverter (you also tried that) and 3) the motherboard. I had the same thing happen with my daughter's acer. I bought her a new computer and sold the laptop for parts.
Motherboard replacement on these are a pain.
Sorry for the bad news ... Good luck

Kenwood KDC-MP832U display not working

I had this problem! It was the Cars Battery. Kenwoods unit's fade or go completely blank when there is little power to power the stereo. Try charging your battery or grabing a new one from a scrappy! I was all over the net looking for help but finally sorted it!

P.S. My younger brother had to do the exact thing and it worked for him as well!!!

Motorola razr phone

It sounds like the backlight in he LCD display has gone bad in the phone. Most displays now have an integrated backlight, so the entire display will need to be replaced. Its not considered to be a user replaceable component. Unfortunately, you'll have to take it to be repaired. The fact that you said it was "fading" before it completely went black tells me that it was going bad and about to fail.

Good luck!
