Hello Everyone,
I'm looking at purchasing a used LCD from ebay for my macbook A1990 2018 15inch which LCD I cracked. Since new / used but working displays cost around 500$ , I found a Grade A+ LCD display for A1990 which has a good price of 110$ but has no backlight.
I would need just to make sure that what I know/my reasoning is correct:
- No backlight means flexgate issue, therefore changingthe flexcable would be enough (I can microsolder to fix the flexgate problem, done it a few times already)
- Seller confirmed its a LCD issue, and not an issue with the macbook's motherboard backlight circuit
- Question -> What other issues regarding the LCD could result in no backlight other than the flexgate issue?
- Question -> Can the LCD logic board (the one which connects the LCD flex cable to the computer motherboard's connector) be swapped between LCDs?
Thankyou!
