Fitting 2010 Display Assembly to 2011 Board
Alright iFixiters, I have a whacky one for you today..
I have a 11" 2011 MBA with a broken display. I just picked up a water damaged 2010 11" for a great price.
I have fitted the 2010 display assembly to the 2011 body, and the LCD displays properly, but the backlight is what's giving me trouble. I know that the 2011 board works and the backlight worked on the cracked panel.
Any ideas on how to get the backlight up and running? Are there major differences between the 2010 and 2011 backlight system that would prevent the 2010 panel from working natively? The panel may be broken, so not sure whats up..
Thanks!

@warkentim give us the logic board numbers from both the 2010 and the 2011 as well as the LCD numbers from the back of the panels. that way we can probably check the datasheets and see if there are major differences. You sure about the backlight having worked?

I have three of the four pieces of information you requested!
2010 Board Number: C021245002HDF8GAM
2011 Board Number: C02129602EMDLD6AM
2011 LCD Number: B116XW05 v.0
I hope these are the right numbers,
Let me know what else I can find.
I can open the 2010 display assembly if it helps
