IBM Thinkpad T21, Recently the LCD illumination intermittently would not come on, on startup. Only after waggling the screen did it return. Now it's off all the time. I've got it in bits looking for a possible bad connection. Any help would be much appreciated.
 
Could be the inverter is bad. It's the interface between the motherboard and the LCD panel.
