13" Macbook Pro Screen issues

A few days ago, while I was busy with an online class, the screen on my MBP went berserk. I initially thought the device got a bit hot, so I waited until the next day. However, it' still the same, and seems to be getting worse. I saw a few threads about this issue, and I've done all the resets that were recommended, but still with no luck.


I noticed a few months ago when I started working from home full time that the device got very hot, so I bought a cooling pad, but it didn't seem to have any effect.


Does anyone have any advice or experienced the same issue?

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 12.1

Hi,

You'd better try to run Apple Diagnostics if it's caused by hardware related issue(VFD001 to VFD007).

Use Apple Diagnostics to test your Mac - Apple Support

If it doesn't help or error was reported, try to make Genius Bar reservation if your local retail AppleStore is open or find opened local Apple Authorized Service Provider to be examined your MacBook Pro there.
