You should take this unit to someone who can properly diagnose the
problem. You have already spent way more than it would have cost to get
it repaired properly by someone who has the test equipment to determine
if the problem is the inverter, the backlight , the lid closure switch,
or some other problem on the motherboard. There is no way for any of us
to tell you what the problem is without running those tests. You are
wasting dollar after dollar trying to do this yourself.

Usually is the backlight. You might be able to change it by yourself. But check on google ow to replace a backlight. It's not hard, but also not very easy. good luck!!!
