Hi,
I have a macbook 13-inch late 2007,

I have started having problems with the back light. after about 5 minutes of use the screen will go black, although I can still see what is on the screen if I hold it up to a light. If I close the lid and open it again it will turn back on for a moment then turn back off, It seems like the longer I let it sit the longer it will go without the light turning back off, I am not sure what I should do, I am planning on repairing it myself, I've had a lot of experience with pc repairs but this will be my first attempt at fixing a mac.


any help would be greatly appreciated.
