My mac display showing colored lines and display freezes


I get this RGB light on my display every now and then. When I shutoff the mac lid and open it again, this issue gets resolved but then comes back again after some time. The laptop is not physically damaged or dropped so I dont know what has happened.


I have sequioa 15.5 Mac version.

Hi,

Try to run Apple Diagnostics if it's hardware related issue.

Use Apple Diagnostics to test your Mac - Apple Support

If it doesn't help, you'd better take your MacBook Pro to your local retail AppleStore, Genius Bar or Apple Authorized Service Provider to be examined your MacBook Pro there.
