   It's hard to say for sure exactly what the problem is. But, the inverter lights up the light in LCD panel. Your cheapest fix is to replace the inverter located in the LCD panel and if that doesn't work then the light is burned out in the LCD panel itself. You would be then looking at replacing LCD panel. Could also be a loose wire, but not likely.
   
   You can find a guide here for the macbook pro:

   Currently there is no macbook pro inverters on ebay. Interestingly, the macbook pro inverter looks just like the macbook inverter. I don't know if they are interchangeable.
   You could call Apple. I do have an spare macbook inverter.
