I did a picofly and after like 30-40 v1/v2s i had my first damage occur on a v1/v2
the display works but the backlight does not function what so ever, i can see the screen fine
what do i need to replace or look into to fix this
is the backlight built into screen?

let me know any tips please
 
Yes, the backlight is integrated in the screen but the drivers for the backlight voltage is on the main board.
It might be a damaged cable, a misaligned cable, a loose connector, scratches on the PCB, or maybe you knocked off / shorted some components.
Start with a visual inspection and if that doesn't turn on anything, then it's time to get out your multimeter or preferable a scope.

Just search this forum for information about fixing broken backlights.

There is a detailed video for the LITE here :
