[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1179696, member: 46727"] Your machine is either an Early 2009 or Mid 2009 model, which is it? And, are you sure that your MacBook has an LED backlight? I believe the LED backlight was used on the MBP that year not the MacBook although I could be wrong. If your machine does have LED backlighting, it does not have an inverter board. However, if the backlight is a CCFD, it's a very difficult job to replace. Apple won't even replace them, they just replace the entire display instead. Is your MacBook still under warranty (Apple care)? If it is, take it on in to Best Buy and let them send it off to Apple for repair. [/QUOTE]
