Yesterday, upon normal use of my computer, my screen has stopped working.
Along the bottom of the screen, I can see strips of uneven lights and the screen will turn off if I open my computer screen more than forty degrees. The screen will often look extremely dim, but can be seen if a light is flashed to it.
Yes this is a known issue with both 2016 and 2017 with the projector cable.
Only thing you can do is take it in for repair.
In or out of warranty you can get a free over the counter 'Apple Service Diagnostics' test /assessment
