Mac turns on but display is not working.

Hi,

It started with some display flickers issue and delayed screen wake up time if we keep it in sleep. Now after few week laptop is working fine but display doesn't come up.

Got it diagnosed from Apple service center, they told display is fine and told me to replace the logic board.

Any suggestions..?

Thanks

The tires are flat so change the engine! I love that logic!

So you know the system is working as you plugged in an external display which is working without a problem correct? So that tells us most of the logic board is AOK! So why would you replace it??

Let’s look at this a bit deeper. Take a flashlight and place it on your display at a sharp angle are you able to see the faint image of your desktop and its icons? If you do they you’ve focused the issue down to the backlight circuit which has encountered a problem.

Now you need to check things physically. Did you have a liquid spill or sit the system down on a wet surface? You’ll need to pop off the bottom cover to inspect things.

You’ll need to follow this guide as puling off the bottom cover is not easy on these newer systems! MacBook Pro 13" Touch Bar 2018 Lower Case Replacement. The trick is getting the front edge over the lip so you can slide the cover down to unclip it from the mid and back anchors before lifting.
