Which Cable Goes From Power InveterInverter To Display?
Which Cable Goes From Power InveterInverter To Display?

Text:

I recently took apart my friends MacBook that was having backlight issues. The backlight was only working some of the time... and eventually it died altogether. From what I had read I thought it was the inverter or the cable going to the inverter from the logic board. After taking it apart and replacing the inverter board and that cable I have ruled that out. However, I have a feeling it may be the pink and white cable coming from the inverter going to the display, as it appeared to be damaged.

Is this cable part of the display? If not, can I buy it separately and replace it? Where can I find this cable?

Thanks so much!
