Hi,

Can anyone help me ? It might be possible that my MacBook Pro 13” early 2015 restarts by it self once in a few minutes because this cable is slightly damaged? It had before LCD problems and has been serviced. As I have noticed, when I touch the cable and move it a little bit, computer restarts immediately, so I thought this might be the restarting problem.

(I have to say that I have already tried other options : I have fresh reinstalled the operating system, so theres no software issue, I have repasted the processor, I have checked the cables connections). The only strange thing is that it doesn’t turn on with the battery disconnected…

Does anyone have any suggestion?

Thanks a lot!!

Are there instructions using the MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Early 2013)? The inside is completely different. Alas.

I'm getting this because the hing broke. The real problem is both hinges have broken. Seems like the other hinge is not possible to replace. Is that right? Will just this one side be enough to open with light use? My Mac is a early 2013 15inch pro. Model A1398
