My Damaged CCFL Inverter: Repair

It's Wednesday, and I am thinking of what to do today. My damaged CCFL inverter at my motorcycle just popped into my mind. I quickly went out and took the CCFL inverter circuit on my bench.

Upon opening, I saw a busted transistor.



Upon checking the other transistor using the E-gizmo's DMM transistor testing feature (this is a very affordable DMM from E-Gizmo), I was able to say that the other transistor is also damaged.



I replaced the two transistors and a diode with a crack(?).



All in all, three components are damaged but they are easily identified and replaced. I hope that this guide may help solve those who have similar CCFL inverter problems.
