I bought this new MacBook unibody 2010. I wanted to use it because I love this model computer specifically. But when I turned it on. I thought the display wasn’t turning on. But then I realized how dim it was. I need to use a ceiling fan light just to see it and use it. And I’m not even sure why. I read something on I fix it that said someone also bought a MacBook unibody. And had the same issue. So how do I fix this.
Can you visit a friend or relative and check with one of their monitors? I'm just trying to rule out any issues with your notebook itself. Based on what you posted, it could be a defective display, display cable, or logic board. Connecting it to an external monitor would, at least, rule out the logic board.

You bought a "new" 2010 MacBook? ... or is it just "new" to you? Regardless, if you connect an external monitor to it, can it boot up to the macOS Desktop?
I only have one monitor. And it’s adc output so it won’t be compatible. It’s a powermac g4 studio display from 2001 so…
Actually you don’t have to do anything. I talked with the seller and we got a solution
We found out so far it could be a defective backlit display. The “ fúse” in the MacBook is defected. And a new part needs sodered
Thanks for the update.
