If you can see very faint video on the screen you have adjusted the brightness higher, then try a PRAM Reset making sure to hold the PRAM Reset for at least three chimes. If this does not bring back the backlight, then you will need to have the laptop repaired. It could be either a bad Display Assembly or a bad Logic Board (I usually find it is a bad Display Assembly).
