Hello Mac Forum,
I have been having some issues for the past few months now where if i tily my screen to certain positions the back light goes off. Just recently it's started going off all the time where i have to close the screen and reopen it for it to come back on, or vigorously tilt the screen back and forth.
I was just wondering what i should do? It seems like it could be an issue regarding a faulty wire of some sort. My model is the Late November 2008 (White), i have no more Apple Care, but i have had hardware replacements for free (including a free battery and whole case replacement due to cracking) out of warranty.
Has anyone else had this sort of issue? What is Apple's take on it? What shall i do?
Update: It seems to be getting worse, when i move the screen the light flickers really fast.
Update2: Sometimes, if i change the brightness right down then back up it comes back on.
Many thanks for your replies,
