Loose antennae connector? Open the keyboard and make sure the Airport  
card is fully seated and especially check the antennae lead to make  
sure it is properly connected.  It takes a strong push to connect the  
wire.

If all is well here ,it may be that the antennae wire has been  
crushed by the hinge.
