Overheating and Display Issues (Backlight Inverter?)
I have been having issues with lines down the display of the screen of my iMac. I belive it could be to do with the backlight inverter as the lines are in even intervals and it doesn’t look like a standard LCD problem. The device also gets very hot when running with no windows open and the heat is centred at the top left of the back if the mac (where the backlight inverter is located).
I opened it up and there seems to be some heat damage to the inverter (shown in the image)
Is replacing this component likely to sovle the problem?
Any second opinion would be much apperciated as I am not much of a mac expert!
