Sleep indicator light completely off

Hi, I’ve been wanting to ask this for a while and it only took me this long (5 years). I have an A1181 I still use daily because it has Freehand MX (don’t ask). The entire computer is fine, the battery even holds a decent charge. Only issue I have sounds really picky but I have never seen the sleep indicator light (SIL) come on. It’s a very slight issue but it bothers me every time I close the lid or turn it on. I just really like seeing that light.

SMC reset doesn’t work.

Is there any way to fix this other than replacing the entire thing? I also bought another dead A1181 for parts, so that shouldn’t be much of a problem.

回答此问题我也有这个问题

这是一个好问题吗？

No its not stupid! I bet you replaced your HDD at some point and in the process you forget to connect the IR/SLI cable to the HDD cable as seen here in Step 19 in this guide MacBook Core 2 Duo Hard Drive Connector Replacement

这个答案有帮助吗？

I've never taken this computer apart and the hard drive is original (bad idea)

I know because it was with my family since 2008... I actually should probably be backing it up right now.

@nagayoshi765 - Rarely does the LED fail, You'll need to take it out to see if its damaged or has a cold solder joint.

@danj I guess I'll just live with it until I don't have to use Freehand. It was left on a shelf for about 2 years though
