Backlight issue fuse good
So I came across this MacBook from a friend and originally it had a cracked screen. The backlight worked at this time. Well she was given a free screen swapped it over and the backlight doesn't work ( could be why it was free) well I have done research and seen about the fuse I took the back off powered it up and I have 10v across the fuse when on and I can see items on the screen with a light shined on it. Anything else I should check before ordering a new screen? Thanks!
Is this a good question?

So I got a used screen off of ebay and doped it in. same issue. I have about 11V across the back light fuse and some of the pins on the controller have some resistance on them. is there anything else I should check for or part it out at this point? I picked this up cheap hoping for an easy fix , and I don't want to dump in money for a new logic board at this point. The laptop was working fine the screen was stepped on, and it's had this issue ever since.
