Backlight died / it would work intermittently and then only when the brightness was on the lowest setting. I was able to toggle the brightness from 0 to 1 to keep it on for a few minutes but it shuts off almost immediately now.
i replaced the inverter and cable , so that leaves the lcd or logic board. There hasn't been any water damage so I'm thinking the cfl backlight must have failed. Anyway to confirm this using a DVOM ?
Another strange thing happened/ the computer no longer charges the battery and the LEDs on the bottom don't light up. Could this be related ? This happened after the back light had already been acting up.
