    Cobra 29LX display back lighting...

    I scored a cheap 29 LX from a truck driver at work. He claimed radio was working and lit up fine, then he heard a sizzle and radio shut down. Then he smelled the magic smoke. OK.... can't loose for $10, even worth that in parts I thought. All protection diodes good yet no voltage to PCB...
