[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1123231, member: 46727"] The two smaller leads are probably the antenna wires that loop thru the back side of the LCD and attach to the airport card. They would have nothing to do with the problem - however, don't mess with them as that could degrade any wireless signals. You're probably going to have to hunt around a bit thru the hinge areas and see where the cables go to. The LVDS cable is very important as it carries the video signals to the LCD. If that cable is bad, you'll have to replace the entire display assembly as Apple nor anyone else sell it as a stand alone part. Sorry I can't be of more help - about the only thing I can advise is to use the sites I gave you in my other reply. They both have good break downs of what and where everything is. Just be careful not to break something else while you're trouble shooting. [/QUOTE]
