How we will diagnose the problem?

Firstly, we will check the backlight fuse. Let’s put the multi-meter in continuity mode and check the backlight fuse. If backlight fuse is fine then check the other capacitors near the backlight. If the capacitors near the backlight is all good. Then, check the lcd connectors. If you see a red trigger i.e. macbook is liquid damage.

After that we have to check the lines. Firstly, we would like to check the J8300 lcd fcp connector, check the two backlight terminals which are SOSW_LCDBKLT. Before that we have to turn on macbook and check with multi-meter and we are getting 1.9V which is way lower than what we should get on backlight. Backlight won’t turn on 1.9V. We are not getting enough power that’s why macbook Air A1466 turns on but no display backlight repair
Backlight is directly connected to (U7701). We can clearly see the board is moisture damage.
We can clearly see the moisture damage and burnt part near the backlight ic. So next thing what we should do is to heat the backlight ic and remove it and put the new backlight ic.
