Touchbar flickering even when unplugged

So this MacBook Pro 15" touchbar 2019 has a faulty touchbar which flickers green and black. After opening up the MacBook and unplugging the touchbar, the flickering continues! What the !&&* is going on? Where does it even get power from? This is spooky.

Hi

From what you have told me I think the touch-bars OLED display has been damaged

The flickering that you are seeing when it’s off is due to spare electricity that hast been used yet making its way out(OLEDS are quite power efficient so it will take a while to stop after being unplugged)

EBay and AliExpress have some good replacements for a reasonable price;-)

Hopefully this answers your question

Thanks:-)
