Sep 27, 2016 12:46 AM in response to flywaysby K Shaffer,Given your topic originally was in MacPro (desktop pro tower) section
and when asked to be relocated, suggestion was given then to hosts
as best-guess, to place it into the MacBook Pro ASC: that didn't help.
An almost common misdirect occurs for the MB/Pro portable topics, to
find themselves wandering lost, among mountainous powerful towers...
Depending on your portable MacBook Pro build model & year, and size
of display, the hardware will vary as will the takeapart to repair said unit.
You may be able to locate the correct unit (if MB/Pro portable) from among:
https://www.ifixit.com/Device/MacBook_Pro macbook pro repair guides
Then see if the prospects of a DIY are within your technical skill set, or not.
Specialized tools and tedious steps of micro-surgery may be involved.
And if their guide suggests the repair is do-able, then you may try it...
In any event...
Good luck & happy computing!

Sep 27, 2016 12:43 PM in response to flywaysby K Shaffer,You may also consider the prospect of setting an appointment at Apple
store with Genius, ahead of a visit, to assure you some time to explain
the issue and see what kind of recommendation they can suggest...
{At least with a portable Mac, an entire unit is most easily transported.}
As these items get older, the referral often is to an outside repairer who
is Apple Authorized; or if enough is needing repair, you could opt to get
an overhaul ~ for a set fee. Depending on your location, this may vary.
If that's the only issue...
Good luck & happy trails!
