Flexgate of MacBook Pro 15 inches, 2017

Hi everyone


Recently my MacBook Pro screen turns off when I open it more than 45 degree. And now I realised that is a flexgate issue.

Please let me know if any had same issue and what is the solution?

and why there is a program from Apple to fix same problem just for 13 inches? Why 15 inches laptops are not included?!!!

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 10.15

Hi Maha-fnj,


Thanks for your post! We see that your MacBook Pro screen will go black when adjusted beyond a 45 degree angle. If you haven't already, try resetting the SMC.
