Hi, I have a 2016 13" MacBook Pro Fn system with a display problem it turns off when lifting the screen beyond a certain angle. Unfortunately I’m not covered by the Apple recall because the time is up. I’m ask if the problem is caused by the LCD-base connection cables or something else? Joseph
To add to @spaeder answer here’s a more detailed explanation, in your case you have the most extreme case: The Design Flaw Behind MacBook Pro’s “Stage Light” Effect2018 MacBook Pros Try to Solve Flexgate Without Admitting It Exists And a vid which also goes over it as well The Design Flaw Behind MacBook Pro’s “Stage light” Effect!
It is caused by the cable that connects the LCD with its small board. Its not the small cable that connects the Logicboard (Mainboard) with the small Display Board. Here is a pic of the Display with the Board and the Cables that break.
