Black horizontal lines MacBook Pro 2018

I was streaming video and all of sudden black, horizontal lines appeared. I already tried SMC and PRAM reset. Is this part of the flex-gate problem? Has anyone come up with a solution. My computer is just over a year old and in excellent condition.

Thanks for reaching out to the Apple Support Communities, merschweda!


It sounds like you're seeing horizontal lines on your MacBook Pro screen. You've done great steps so far resetting the SMC and PRAM, and next I would suggest checking out this article for How to use Apple Diagnostics on your Mac.


I also suggest checking out this article About macOS Recovery to boot into recovery mode on the Mac and see if the issue happens in macOS recovery.


Let me know the results and take care!
