If the external display works, but the laptop's built-in display is bad, then you will most likely need to replace the laptop's built-in Display. There is a slim chance there could be a loose internal video cable or a bad Logic Board backlight power circuit depending on the exact model of Apple laptop. Have Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider examine the laptop to provide you with a repair estimate.

See if your laptop qualifies for this free Apple backlight repair program:
