2007 macbook pro screen

Try rebooting, and check the screen brightness control buttons F2.

do you have a monitor you can connect to? Then you could see to navigate and try track it down.

I wonder if the ribbon cable that runs the screen has died?

Try a SMC reset, power down then hold left shift, control, option, power up press these keys before the start up chime and hold them down for what your normal amount of time that your gear would stop spinnig.

You can also try a pram reset, power down, hold option, command, P,R, and power up the same as above, maybe these will help.

Good Luck 🙂

Hi, think you did not have any luck, or I you have accesswould haveheard back from Apple. I mght have a couple more things to try, your MBP Has a removable battry right? With it turned off, remove the power cord, remone the battery, and push the power button and hold for 10 seconds. reinstall battery and power cord and try boooting.
