I need MacBook Pro screen expert
Hi, Ifixit community!
I'll tell you my whole story hopefully, some experts give me some solutions
I have a late 2013 15inch MacBook pro with Nvidia graphics
one of the days I opened it and notice a pink spot on the screen :(
This pink spot only appears in dark/black areas. In white areas, it doesn't appear
- I've reset the SMC/PRAM and the problem is still persists
- I've factory reset the MacBook and still persists
- I downloaded a software called gfxCardStatus to change between IG/DG and the problem still persists
- I plugged the MacBook with second monitor via HDMI and the pink spot doesn't appear in the second monitor
- I tried some website solution like jscreenfix website and youtube stuck pixel fix video
Finally, I tried some remedies like pressure on the screen with a pen covered with a soft towel, heat and pressure with a hairdryer and seems like this pink spot won't go away.
Some people told me it is a screen defect and you need to replace the entire screen, and as you know the screen is a little bit pricey and I really love "DIY" and fix everything myself.
So please, could some screen experts explain why this issue happened to the screen?
- From the display cable
- LCD panel its self
- The defusion sheets behind the LCD panel
- The screen controller board
Is the issue from one of the above?
There’s a lot of cheap cracked screens on eBay, I could purchase one and take some part it and fix my own screen?
Esta é uma boa pergunta?

@novms what you have here is a damaged LCD matrix. The only way to repair this is by replacing the LCD display.

@oldturkey03 Thanks for replying
do you mean only "LCD Panel"
and not the white "sheets" or "films" behind the LCD

That is correct. Not the diffuser etc just the LCD matrix that is damged. Issue here will be to disassmle it to that level. It is not a board etc. it's your LCD that has failed. Which really is neither here not there since you most likely won't get the individual parts a. disassembled and b. replacements
