Hi, sorry,  I thought it was still working and that it was one of the 
usual problems : After a backlight replacement, the LCD still doesn't 
light. The inverter usually dies at the some time as the old EL foil. I 
don't think replacing the inverter will fix your problem. Usually, when 
the inverter starts working poorly, it's due to cold joints in the 
inverter, which are impossible to reach. It shouldn't short things out. 
You'd better remove it from the K5 for the moment and look for blown 
fuses or bad connections, especially between the input PCB and the power 
switch.
