Chosen Solution
Hello, I have a Macbook A1181 13 2.0GHz with a non working monitor, after power-on i get a half second flash light from the lcd and from the led light web-camera and i cant see any image at all (no faint images or back light) from the monitor i already replace the inverter, still the same symptoms i think it is the logic board after make some tests with a voltimeter on the cable from logic board that goes on inverter i can see the same symptoms on the voltimeter (the voltage go high for half a second) i don´t have a video rgb cable to hook the computer to a external monitor here my targets:
- it is a bad inverter cable?
- it is a bad logic board?
- it is a smd fuse on logic board?
- it is a Missing enable voltage from motherboard’s video chip? My last option is to replace the logic board but before i want to try to fix my self tanks every one Update Tanks for your answer. This model don´t have a nvidia gpu Components already tested:
- Monitor LCD: OK
- Inverter: OK
- Cables: ???
- Mainboard: ??? »»I am now hunting for SMDs dead Fuses… Note: the macbook start normally i just don´t have image on the monitor. Details of my Macbook:
Model Family: MacBook Production Year: 2007 Display: 13.3" Processor Type: 2.0GHz Core 2 Duo Model Number: A1181 Serial Number: ***Z5V Part Nº: 825-6896-A Color: White Size: 13.3" Speed: 2.0GHz Manufacturer: Intel Type: Core 2 Duo Architecture: T7200 Codename: Merom
Any way, its a shame that i have to replace a complete mainboard because of a internal malfunction component or because a little SMD fuse that i can’t identify, the real problem here is to isolate a faulty component… Tanks.
Please look in the battery compartment and tell us which video processor you have. This may be covered under a Nvidia GPU recall issue. Or the last three letters of your serial number.
