Backlight defective, external display works. Change motherboard?
While replacing a defective HD with a new SSD I must have done something wrong (maybe hit a fuse...).
The laptop still works and I can use it attached to an external display but the internal display has no more backlight (the backlit keyboard still works). The LCD is not defective because I can still see an image on it very faint when I shine a torchlight on the screen.
I brought it into my local Apple shop and they want to replace the motherboard (big cost!!!) but I saw some threads on replacing the fuse ore wled driver. This requires knowledge of the motherboard and where to look for these pieces. I will not attempt to do this myself but maybe with the right information I could get a specialized shop to do the task. Any help with schemes or tip is welcome.
Questa è una buona domanda?

Erik, that might be a possibility. what are the last three digits of your computer? Do you have a number on the motherboard? It will help us to identify your computer and logicboard properly and possibly find what you are looking for. Also post some high res images on here so that we can may be point those components out to you.
