4 Different LCD Issues

4 Fixing Methods

The LCD display of a MacBook is a vital component, susceptible to damage from various factors. In real-life scenarios, different issues may arise, each requiring unique fixing methods. It's important to note that the cost of addressing an LCD issue can vary significantly, with some problems costing up to five times less to fix than others.

The information below will elucidate every conceivable LCD issue and its respective solutions.

Flexgate issue

This issue is commonly observed in 2016, 2017 and 2018 MacBooks, where the backlight flex cable is susceptible to increased pressure when the laptop screen is opened beyond a certain angle, often near full opening. The delicate nature of the backlight LEDs' flex cable makes it prone to breaking over time due to a design flaw caused by repeated lid opening and closing. These issues manifest as the 'stage light' effect, progressing to complete backlight loss where the screen appears unresponsive and turns black. We not only replace this specific cable but also improve the design flaw by adding extra length, aligning with Apple's approach from 2019.

Water damage

Even a small liquid spill can result in a cloud effect under the MacBook's LCD screen. The LCD assembly comprises two crucial elements for optimal image quality:

  • LCD itself, responsible for image production.
  • Backlight layers, ensuring even light distribution across the entire LCD surface.

Our expert team can replace the backlight elements, preserving your original LCD. This not only revitalizes your MacBook but also saves costs compared to LCD replacement with a copy, delivering superior results.

Flex cables issue​

The cables connecting the motherboard to the LCD are susceptible to damage, even from the smallest dust particles. This can result in cuts or holes in the flex cables due to friction during the opening and closing of the MacBook's LCD. While cable damage can occur for various reasons, it's often due to this common scenario. Our professional team can replace these cables without necessitating LCD replacement, offering a more cost-effective solution compared to traditional service centres. Many service centres opt for full LCD replacement as they lack the required equipment and expertise for in-depth fixing of specific faulty parts. This misconception may lead to higher costs for customers. At our centre, we take pride in addressing all types of flex cable issues with precision and efficiency

Cracked LCD

In the course of using a MacBook, physical damage can occur, often due to falls or closing the LCD with objects on the keyboard. Common symptoms of a broken LCD include image bleeds or large black areas. In such cases, we provide two options: the replacement of the LCD itself or the entire LCD assembly. Unlike other service centers, we distinguish ourselves by offering the option to replace only the LCD, preserving your aluminium panel, webcam, and other components. This not only ensures cost savings but also minimizes the impact on your existing setup.
