MacBook Pro 15" Touch Bar 2018 Screen Replacement
Введение
Перейти к шагу 1Use this guide to replace the entire display assembly on your MacBook Pro, in order to fix a cracked or faulty screen. This assembly also includes the integrated ribbon cables that are known to fail as part of the “FlexGate” defect on earlier models, so replacing it will also resolve the “stage lights” effect and other issues resulting from ribbon cable damage.
Although we’ve successfully tested this procedure on 2018 models using original Apple replacement displays, Apple’s T2 chip may prevent aftermarket displays from working correctly, and your MacBook Pro may not boot as a result.
For your safety, discharge your MacBook Pro's battery below 25% before you begin. A charged lithium-ion battery can create a dangerous and uncontrollable fire if accidentally punctured.

where can I purchase an lcd screen for this computer?
hai jeff. Is that possible I can revive my screen not to buy a new one, instead of replacing 3 pairs of flexible cable? thanks
To reiterate Ron’s request - you’ve shown me how to fix the screen (thank you!) without showing me where/how to purchase the replacement?
Banggodd or AliExpress but ta
Apple sry to get a genuine Apple screen as ‘compatibles’ may not pass in built Apple security- more expensive but can save a lot of heartache and later expense.
