Thanks for the reply, I thought as much. I have swapped out another LED strip from the frst replacement screen I bought (wrong one) and it works. But unfortunately it's got 7 LED's not 5 and it looks all bled out, no good. I tried another Glo strip in there (the original one from the broken screen) and it fails as well. I wonder if you can buy these as spares from somewhere....
