I have a MacBook 12" A1534 Early 2015. My LCD screen just went completely white after a few vertical bars popping on the screen. I see that the LCD screen is pretty cheap per se, whereas the display assembly can get expensive quickly so I would like to replace the former. I have found many guides to replace the display assembly, but almost zero guidance on how to replace the LCD screen. Is replacing the screen of this MacBook something relatively easy to do? Are there any helpful guides how there that I can take a look at? Cheers! ~Cesare
The newer retina displays are very difficult to open without damaging, which is why you won’t find a guide breaking it down. As you can see here in IFIXIT’s attempt: MacBook Pro Retina Display Teardown. It’s not worth it! The display afterwards won’t be as good as you’ll likely damage the sheets or leave marks. Here’s the IFIXIT guide to replace the assembly: Retina MacBook 2015 Display Assembly Replacement and here’s the part: MacBook 12" Retina (Early 2015) Display Assembly - Apple P/N 661-02241
A white screen has usually been a hard drive issue, but I don’t know with the sticks. Try booting into recovery mode by holding down the Option key on start up and selecting the recovery partition and let us know if the problem persists. Also hooking it up to an external monitor will tell us if the is an issue with the GPU. Also try booting from an external USB source. I just uploaded 48 images of doing this repair. But your screen does not appear to be broken. It appears to be malfunctioning and we need to diagnose the problem before trying to repair it
2015 is compatible with a 2017, I just completed it last week
Just quick question. Is the screen from 2015 model compatible with 2017?
