When inspecting the screen in front of a flashlight, a faint image was visible. This confirmed that the phone was on and in fact worked, but had a blown back light. For this type of repair it would require micro soldering. After checking the filters on the motherboard we found them to have continuity and functioned within specifications. At this point in the back light circuit we still had a back light display BGA IC (ball grid array integrated circuit) as well as a coil and a diode. After checking the coil, which was also found to be within specifications, we then looked to the diode. Below is the picture of the diode under the cpu heatsink.
If you have an iPhone that has no backlight this can often be the result of an improper screen replacement or previous work done on the iPhone motherboard can cause the back light to suddenly go out. Liquid damage can also cause no back lights on an iPhone.
