Hello everyone,
I have an A1708 MacBook Pro that had a flexgate issue. After jumper wiring a new connector (I followed this video as reference:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ylGK...SnJxgQ&index=5) I was able to get the display working again. However, when I tried turning the brightness down, the backlight coming from the bottom of the screen was not getting dimmer (image of the display behavior at the lowest brightness setting attached below). I checked the soldering on the cable again and everything seemed fine. Could there be another issue causing this (for example the other connector) or is it likely that I bodged the connector wiring? Hopefully someone here can help me with this issue, which I'd be very thankful for.
