Is there even image?
Do you get USB activity, or chime?
Assuming yes, or at least DP_INT_HPD is high, post voltages at Q7700.
Check continuity to R5490.
Corroded XW7720 is common failure on Airs...

i have faint image, USB works and i get chime
Q7700 all pins less than .10v
R5490 is blank
and XW7720 is corroded but i think there is a problem before this (but i did run jumper and tested continuity to pin 5 of U7701)

Sorry, my mistake; it should be Q7706, instead of Q7700...
As no voltage at L7701, check F7700 and post Q7706/07 voltages.

"F7700 pin 1 8.6v and pin 2 .01v"
F7700 blown, change it...

Be sure no short on backlight area, before power up the board.
