Recently I disassembled my MacBook in order to thoroughly clean out the motherboard and redo the thermal compound, since it was starting to run pretty hot and I figured it was about time to do so. I managed to disassemble and reassemble everything just fine, but now I'm getting a gray (and sometimes white) screen with the built-in display.
I know the computer itself is fine since I'm using it with an external display now without any issues, but it would be nice to have it be useable as a laptop again. Pretty sure it's not an LVDS fault since the cable is in good condition and none of the connectors are corroded or bent. Could it be that I missed something during reassembly or have I somehow damaged a component on the logic board?
And for reference, this person on the Apple boards seems to be having the exact same issue I have: https://discussions.apple.com/message/25217019
