Hi,
I have a laptop here (Toshiba M100) from a friend who it's backlight seems broken (The lcd works, vga ouput too). I thought it was the inverter but I think it's not finally:
When I boot the laptop, during the post process, the backlight come on for 2-3 seconds then turns back off forever. I guess the problem is with the lid close switch since the inverter seems to work.
I can't find the lid close switch at all, even with the bezel off. Anyone can help me find this switch??
Thanks!

It's been a while since I am searhcing for service manuals and nothing up to date.
I really need to know where is this lid close switch... Anyone?

Hi,
I have the same laptop, but different problems.
Anyway, the switch you are looking for is a magnetic one. It's located on the upper left border inside the lid, easy to find with something magnetic.
good luck
