my 3k screen is off..i know a lotta you guy mention the foil
but the sad thing is..i dunno the foil is (yes is pathetic)

the reason im joining this forum is to get my 3k back in shape..

maybe in the future imma share what i know to the rookie and do the same thing like yall do


i already open my 3k
heres some of my 3k (inside look)
what should i do to bring the light back?







THANKS GUYS..
GOD BLESS

If it's showing nothing at all, it's not the foil. If it's readable, but not even a dim glow comes on, or it went down over night, it's probably also not the foil.

The foil is what the two leads are connected to in your first pic.

Is the backlight supposed to be super bright? I can see my screen fine. In the daylight its a little hard to see but i dont know if it is really supposed to be any brighter? Ill post a picture and maybe one of you can can tell me. I mean i dont really need to but I would like to do it one day just so its really bright and a little easier to see.

guys what is this?
this green space dust kind a thing?,lol
why mine is different from the pics bellow (the one that i see on VST sites)

is this the foil?

Well, what does it look like?
It's just some foam to make it fit nicely against the casing.

I said already...the foil is what the two leads are connected to. But make sure first that the foil is really the problem.

And no, those kind of displays are not really very bright. Hard to say though if yours is okay still or not, even with a photo, because it depends a lot on ambient lighting and exposure time how it looks on the pic.

ooh my bad

my screen look like this:







what should i do?

Did the backlight go out suddenly, or did it just get dimmer and dimmer over time?

To fix it you first need to know what is broken. There can be all sorts of things wrong with it.
