Vishay does send samples. so far i have got an infrared receiver, 2 leds, and a 7 segment lcd display. I am very pleased with the quality of the items. We should buy from them sometimes too so we can keep recieving samples.0

The 1800 series of 16W DC/DC converter modules combine innovative design techniques, conservative component selection and stringent test standards to achieve very high levels of reliability, performance and power density. Per MIL-HDBK-217F, that MTBF is >600,000 hours (+25oC Ground Benign) and greater than 125,000 hours for Airborne Inhabited. The 1800 series has been designed specifically to meet the rigorous demands of avionics equipment. Eight models have wide 16 VDC to 36 VDC inputs, centered on 28 VDC. Single, dual or triple output combinations of 5, 12, 15, ±5, ±12 and ±15 VDC are provided. Standard features include 1000 VDC input/output isolation, output ripple and noise of less than 1% and continuous short circuit protection. Efficiency is as high as 80%. A remote ON/OFF control input and internal PI filter are standard.
Be careful - that datasheet is for Vishay LCD part number LCD-016M002B, which is not the same as your module"s part number. Therefore, although lots of information is similar between the various 16x2 LCD modules, I doubt that it is the correct datasheet for your module, and exact details (including the LED backlights) do vary between different 16x2 LCD modules.
Although it would need tracing with a multimeter, the connection from pin 15 on the LCD connector appears to go (using some solder jumpers and vias) through RL1 and RL2 and then to the A (Anode) pin of the edge illumination LED on the extreme left of the PCB.
However if your LCD module doesn"t exactly match the one in the photo above (despite having the same part number), or yours doesn"t have resistors fitted in positions RL1 and RL2, or you measure a direct short (i.e. a direct connection, with no significant resistance) between connector pin 15 on the LCD module connector and the A pin of the LED backlight itself, then you need to supply a photo of your specific LCD module and we can review that.
Note that this situation would be avoided if you had the real datasheet for that specific LCD module. This is why it is always important to have the datasheet for any device / component which you are using. :-)
