Led Display Macbook pro 2,2 ghz santa rosa dark

Reply by DjNunes

Hy there Folks,

Im from Germany so i want to excuse may bad grammar in writing english.

Now the case is, i bought on ebay the macbook pro which is titled in the headline knowing that the display is dead not so dead but dark you can still see something when you lighten it up with a lamp or sth else.

I changed the I/O Board turned the laptop on and the display was going again i was happy but only exact for about 2 hours now its dark again.

The dvi output device works i get an signal on an external monitor.

Now i ordered an Inverter from britain to see if it comes from there so now is my question why did it work for 2 hours?

Any other suggestions?

Your backlight is out. The inverter most likely will fix the problem. I'm thinking that changing the I/O board bumped something and the inverter may have used up the last of it's operational ability. That's just a theory, but I think it's close.

Oh, and your grammar is just fine. No problems understanding you at all, so happy fixing. : )
