Blank black screen with vertical lines macbook

Did this happen to you suddenly your macbook air have this dead blank black with lines on screen? You can turn off and turn on but no apple logo appears.. i did the reboot/reset but still the same. What did you do? And if you send it to service center how long the turnaround time and how much it costs you? Out of warranty here. Is it fixable?

Hello nikkavalentine,


Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.


I understand that your MacBook Air is booting to a black screen with vertical lines. I would recommend starting by resetting the NVRAM on your MacBook Pro. Take a look at this article for the steps: Reset NVRAM or PRAM on your Mac - Apple Support


If you continue to have issues, I would suggest testing in safe mode, here is an article to help you with that: Use safe mode to isolate issues with your Mac - Apple Support


If you continue to have issues, get backwash us and we can go from there.


Best regards.
