An oscilloscope is certainly a plus for troubleshouting, a microscope, not for me even if I have bad sight. I'm from Montréal, Québec, Canada. So, for the description of your 40 pins, I found that your laptop could use a B156HW01-V0 screen, you can find the datasheet easily on the internet. You have a picture on an external and you see something on the screen on an angle, so the screen and the cable is good because you have 19.75 volts on the pin 40, the LED enable pin 36 you have 3.28 volts, BUT you have 0.57 volt on pin 35, meaning the pin 35 is the PMW, the brighness of the screen, I wrote you should have between 2.5 and 5.5 volts to function. The problem is on the motherboard, the chip controlling the brighness or some component between.
