MacBook Pro (13" 2016) Screen Dies Every Time

Hello,


There is an issue I’ve been experiencing for several months and I was wondering if somebody could help me with this.


My MacBook Pro (2016 model, 13 inch screen) Mojave went through three phases:

1) At first it happened every now and then that my brightness would suddenly dim very, very slightly, barely noticeably (please note that I have auto-brightness turned off). This would only happen at most once between two power-ons.

2) Then, and this is unfortunately a reoccurring bug, sometimes the brightness abruptly dims greatly (equivalent to clicking “reduce brightness” four to six times) and, at the very bottom of the screen, I can see alternating dark and lit up parts (please see the attached photo).

3) I wasn’t too worried until recently, after going through phase 2, my computer’s brightness died completely and the screen went totally black. However, the computer was still turned on and functioning, it was simply the display that wasn’t working anymore.


I’ve tried following suggestions from this website (https://www.creativebloq.com/how-to/fix-black-screen-on-macbook-pro) but unfortunately to no avail.


And now every time I turn on my laptop, it briefly enters stage 2, before the screen dying completely, making it unusable.


Does anyone perhaps have an idea on what is wrong with my computer and how it could be fixed?


Thank you in advance
