I've received a faulty led panel. It shows some darker areas on the bottom part, fan shaped, less than an inch tall. Apart from that the image shows nicely, colours are fine, no dead pixels as far as I can see. I noticed from the panel comes a pesky whizzy sound too. Two faults in such a small screed are unacceptable but I was wondering whether it may be a not too complicated fix somehow. Any insight ? Thank you !

Re: 13" faulty macbook led screen
I'd hazard a guess it's LED failure. You'd have to remove the frame, sepearte the layers, find the correct LEDs and replace them.
Not something I'd want to do for a customer and certainly not on something new i'd bought.
Send it back.Comment

Re: 13" faulty macbook led screen
It was on a machine I bought for spares, luckily not paid that much. I've tried a couple of times to put my hands on faulty panels just for curiosity and understanding how they work. Unfortunately I managed only once to get some better outcome than the initial damage. I hoped in this case there was some smd component that could be replaced.
Thanks for help anyway !Comment

Just had a customer bring in a M2 MBA A2681 that had had a screen replacement in April at another repairer. Since then, she has been getting intermittent kernel panics. It's an aftermarket screen, and of course it fails in diagnostics as the calibration hasn't been done. The error in the panic log is "No device added after powering on the rails".
It seems the original repairer has swapped the board and the screen to other MAC's, and said that it isn't a screen issue. From what I understand, by doing a quick search on Google, this is in fact a screen issue. The panic relates...07-31-2025, 08:37 PM -
Hi guys, this my first post but i want to be brief about it, i recently got a MBP L2013, the problem was that after some use the macbook shutted down randomly, at first i suspected to be the battery, and after connecting it with the charger i noticed that i didn´t shut, but after an hour or so it shutdown, after that i started searching a solution to my problem, but my brother tried to help me to find the problem and it that process to replicate the problem he reproduced a 4k video in multiple tabs and not much time after the macbook shutdown to never power again, what i noticed was that the...05-23-2024, 05:17 PM -
Hello Everybody,
I have a cracked screen and want to fix it. Usually, TrueTone will be gone as long as one does not prune open the screen and exchange only the LCD. However, I have seen the following Youtube video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MBNqhp6p_ZM, Solve MacBook M1 Pro screen true tone issue from the channel Master Liu, where only two chips called "display control chip" and "code chip" are swapped over to the new screen. I know, it is for the MacBookPro version. Though, I had the hope that it could work similarly for the MacBook Air as well.

Hi there.
I have Macbook Pro 16" 2019, model number A2141, motherboard number 820-01700. I have some problem with dedicated graphic card. When Macbook switches to dedicated GPU it is getting instantly hot and starts to show glitches on screen, then it freezes (trackpad is not clicking anymore) and shuts down.
I tried to reinstall MacOS But it was a pain, it started to show glitches in middle of installation and I could not finish it. I only was able to reinstall MacOS when I put Macbook outside (it is winter and -2 Celcius).
Now situation looks like this, If... -
Hey everyone,
I bought a MacBook A1990 with no screen. I bought it knowing the motherboard was defective but wasn't sure what the problem was until I received it. It actually turns on but as you see from the attachment, it has vertical stripes, on an external screen!!
The board is neat. Not opened before for sure. Just a little dust, nothing more.
Recovery using wifi can be opened, as can also be seen in the photo but it doesn't go all the way through after connecting it to a wifi. It downloads the initial Recovery files but never completes the rest of the...
