The Apple Service manual says first reset the power manager. For the 13.3 screen, start with the display cable. If you have a 14 inch screen, start with the inverter cable, then the power cable, the inverter board (replace), replace the display, i/o logic. I just bought a replacement screen on eBay. Mine is dim and a replacement of the backlight seems problematic One user did it but dust got into the screen and it's pretty bad. Does anyone know if the 14 inch backlight is soldered-in or just clips in? George
