Hey Guys

I have an old 2006 MacBook with a fried logic board, and I am set on the idea of turning it into a raspberry pibook.

I have stripped out the contents an sorted out a way to convert the trackpad and keyboard to USB, but the monitor has a strange connection to the motherboard.

The monitors connection has 6 connections, followed by a gap, followed by 18 more connections(picture attached). It is the end of a circuit connected to the monitor by three cables. Does anyone know what the connection is an how I would be able to use it? Can it straight up wire to dvi? Or what other steps would be required?

Thanks,

Alex

That is the wireless card (Airport) ??????

Nothing to do with the monitor

The monitor cables are wrapped around the right-hand hinge......

Good luck in finding a suitable connector to connect it to.
