Macbook late 2016 Touchbar lcd backlight issue.

Hi I have Macbook pro late 2016 with touch bar 13". A few days back I just closed its lid and went out for a few minutes.... When I came back and opened it, hardly after 5 mins, it didn't light the Lcd... The whole book was running but lcd was black. After sometime I found out that Lcd was working when I put flashlight on it...

I think the issue is with backlight....

Please tell me what exactly is the issue and how much will it cost me.?

Frankly I bought this thing In order to avoid these types of ***** and Mac has broken my expectations....

MacBook Pro TouchBar and Touch ID, iOS 11.3.1

Hello and welcome to Apple Support Communities, alviawan.
If I understand your post correctly, the backlight on your MacBook Pro is not coming on when the computer is powered on. I'd like to help.
Try resetting the SMC, like this:

Let us know if that resolves this issue for you.
