How can I replace a backlight in my MacBook lcd?
Hi, I have a macbook screen with a burnt out backlight (from a 2006 macbook, 1.83 GHz Core 2 Duo). I KNOW it is the backlight from these reasons:
The correct image shows up on the LCD, but it is extremely dim.
Other screens work correctly on the macbook, so it can't be the logic board.
The screen data cable is known to work (worked fine with a different screen).
The inverter is known to work (worked fine with a different screen).
The backlight cable is in good condition.
I understand the backlight repair is difficult, but I do have soldering experience, and the bulbs are so inexpensive. Does anyone know how/where I can find instructions for the repair? Or is it so difficult that I should just get rid of it? Thanks.
Ist dies eine gute Frage?

These replacement LCD panels are pretty inexpensive, so replacing a backlight is just a little bit silly. Replacing the panel is really not that difficult either. You can probably do it yourself!

hey my mac book jus randomly shut down on me and when i turned it back on same i got a blackscreen i thought my mac was dead but than i seen that i can turn on the caps and the volume button i can hear noise . so after i awhile i jus figured that my screen was dead and did everything i could to reset the pram and hardware anyways what helped was taken off the lid of the mac book and jus shining a light through the back go the computer. i think the problem is the backlight is dead in the back of led screen so all i did was use a lamp as the light and i can see my screen again $@$*!& that its ghetto rigged and i need a %#*@ desk lamp in the back of my laptop to see my screen but hey all my songs are still here!
