Black screen appeared on MacBook Pro 2016 when opened to 90 degrees angle. What should I do?

Black screen appeared on MacBook Pro 2016 when opened to 90 degrees angle. But it’s okay when it’s opened at 45 degrees angle. What should I do?


I tried shutting it down and turning on again. It doesn’t work.


I erased everything and redownloaded MacOS Monterey. It doesn’t work.



MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 12.7

On any Retina Macbook Pro, the display is a single sealed assembly whose components cannot be separately replaced. If the cable goes bad from wear, the entire display must be replaced, We cannot quote prices, but other users here have posted that the display replacement cost (parts+ labor) for a 13-inch model starts about US$550 and goes up as the screen size get larger.


Note from the estimator in this Apple support article that your Macbook Pro no longer qualifies for Apple service, and a third-party developer may not be able to get parts.
