After motherboard change, lcd is black. What can it be?

I changed the motherboard (The other one was not working) but after the change and all the components correctly connected (Except battery, im still waiting for the replacement to arrive) fan spins, but only shows a black screen, no apple logo, no backlight issue, only black screen.

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

@mitigations - Have you tried connecting an external display to the Mac?

It wont connect to external sources

@mitigations - Unfortunately this is tough. Since there is no way to test the Mac via external devices, there is no easy way to figure out what the problem exactly is.

So, either your display, or your Logic Board is broken.

Aim a flashlight thru the lids Apple logo, it should offer enough light to see a dim desktop and its icons. Does that work?
