Hey!
I have a Macbook Pro 13 from 2020 with the M1. The backlight of the display has stopped working and I am about to send it for repair. When I first spoke to support I though the screen has stopped working completely so I was quoted 679€ for the repair of a cracked screen.
I’m just wondering if repairing the backlight will involve replacing the whole screen or if it can be fixed without having to do so.
Thanks!
MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 14.3
Apple has been relentlessly moving to FEWER (and therefore more complex) repair parts. The thought is that one part now covers any one of several repair operations. This also appears to reduce the overall cost of the repair parts pool.
The downside is that the part available for display repairs is 'display assembly, complete'. No sub-assemblies or piece parts are available.
