One embodiment of the present invention discloses a transmissive display device including a display panel, a backlight including a plurality of fluorescent tubes, an inverter section that supplies a driving voltage to the backlight, and an inverter control section that controls whether to drive or stop the inverter section and stops the inverter section when at least one of the fluorescent tubes is not lighting. The display device includes a mode determination section that determines whether a driving mode of the display device is a normal mode or a maintenance mode. Upon receiving, from the mode determination section, a signal indicating that the drive mode is the maintenance mode, after having stopped the inverter section due to a fact that at least one of the plurality of fluorescent tubes is not lighting, the inverter control section drives the inverter section again. Such a configuration makes it possible to, in a display device in which a backlight including a plurality of fluorescent tubes is used, make maintenance work more efficient by identifying a failed fluorescent tube while the backlight is not lighting.
