Sorry, I was testing this with a bad LCD, with good LCD I get folder no backlight.

Sorry for the tonto question, but is there a screen I can use to test all this boards that use the same connector, say a retina 13" on a retina 15" diferent model year? How about an Air screen on a retina board? I know this is silly to ask but I don't have many parts to test and I am curious about this.

First check on schematic if LCD connectors have the same layout.
Second, and most important, Apple changed LCD firmware like hell; almost every year.
You can find on Internet some screen compatibility; on the forum should find something too.

You can use 13 vs 15 Retina screens interchangeably for testing; HOWEVER, the 2015 is a different screen than the others. Late 2012/Early 2013, Late 2013/Mid 2014, and 2015 all different screens. MacBook Air screen will definitely not work.
