Everything ok, only now my screen won`t turn off when I close the lid... Any theories?

Francisco Hood - Replica

just speculation here most laptops have a small magnet and the magnetic reed switch the trip the action to turn off the screen when the lid closes this activating sleep mode

my suspicions are that you damaged the reed switch or you lost a little magnet

Xander Stellema -

I just performed this repair. Everything went smoothly and it is working great.

Thank you to Phillip for this guide. Completed with no issues. My DC port was wrecked after many years of use and was causing my MBP to only charge intermittently.

Jon Pavledis - Replica

Brilliant guide. Thanks. Completed the repair and now it charges perfectly.
