Chosen Solution
So I’ve been looking for a software solution to an issue with garbage colours appearing on my display when it comes back from sleep. A few minutes ago I realized that it actually happens based on the angle the lid is open (pretty much 100% when 90 degrees, it goes away as it is opened more or less from there, garbage colours get mixed in especially against black and grey,) so I expect the problem is a loose or damaged cable connecting the display to the logic board. I’ve ordered the replacement cable (I’m out of Apple Care) but it’s hard to make out from the photos in the teardown exactly where this cable is and how easy it is likely to be to replace. Anyone with any relevant experience or advice? I don’t want to open it up until I have the parts in hand and sort of assume screwdrivers are basically all I’ll need.
If you are talking about the reel cables inside the folding part of the hinge, they cannot be replaced, you have to replace the whole display assembly.
