[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1032511, member: 46727"] I don't believe it has anything to do with the video otherwise you would not have been able to see the very dim display at all. I believe you're correct about the backlight. It may be the backlight itself or the inverter which supplies power for the backlight. The inverter is much easier to replace but in my experience, is less likely to fail than the backlight. Replacing the backlight is a tedious and intricate job. It is much easier to replace the entire display rather than fool with the backlight. You can go to the ifixit web site and price out a new display plus get step by step instructions for replacing it yourself. While you're at it, you might take a look at how to replace the inverter.
