    They should be the same for D900 and M570TU since they share the same display models and the backlight cable should be 12 pin/way for both. I don't think that the electrical specification for the backlight cable interface to be different.

    Have you replaced your inverter?

    Yes I bought the one without LED and replaced it but it didn't fix my dim black screen issue. So I bought a new backlight and took it to a PC repair shop and he used over 2 hours trying to replacing it and couldn't do it. If he should continue with replacing it, it would cost me more then a new LCD screen. So now I'm gonna replace the LCD screen.

    Why didn't you open the thread in the Sager/Clevo forum, I suspect this is the reason your thread didn't get noticed.

    LCD screens are very hard to work on and replace the internals. Some of them just for the backlight you have to separate or expose diffuser sheets which are extremely sensitive and attract dust.

    I can do it. If you're about to throw away that other screen or list it on Ebay as-is, let me know. I would also try to fix it for only shipping costs if you want it back.
