no backlight, could it be a problem of the motherboard?
Hello, I've a late 2006 macbook and the backlight is not working; first, the problem appeared only when closing and reopening it, and I could solve it turning off the macbook and getting out the battery; now this "solution" doesn't even work.
Apple's technical support says that the problem is in the motherboard, so the only solution is to change the whole motherboard (476 €!!), is it possible? could it be another thing? if it's true, could I change the motherboard myself or is too difficult?
Thanks a lot and sorry for my english :)
Is dit een goede vraag?

Thanks to all for the answers! My macbook is coming back from the Apple's technical service, so when I have it back I'll try to connect it to an external monitor and I'll tell you. I hope it works!

Hello! I repaired my macbook!!! :D
Like I thought, the problem was the inverter cable, not the motherboard like Apple Technical Service told, and I'm pretty sure they tried to cheat me.
When I opened my macbook I saw clearly that the inverter cable was broken! BROKEN!! So I think they didn't even open my macbook, or they must have seen the broken cable. They will hear me.......
Thanks to all for the answers, I couldn't have done it without you!
