I have a 15" MBP - I was sitting down on my couch and I tilted the screen towards myself slightly, and the screen went dark. There was no flickering or any sounds or anything noticeable that happened. I noticed that I could still see my screen, however, it was just really dark. I immediately went online and read all the forums and posts I could regarding this problem. From what I gathered I have one of three problems.
1) Bad Inverter Board
2) Bad LCD
3) Bad Logic Board
I went with the cheapest route and ordered myself a new inverter board and replaced it myself. This was a little scary, but not quite as scary as taking my wife's keyboard apart and cleaning it. I crossed my fingers and turned my MBP back on... still dark.
Does anyone have any suggestions or helpful information?
Thanks!!
