Screen replacement
Often the panel only — not Apple's whole assembly.
No chime, no fan, no display. Apple's answer is a logic board replacement, priced close to what the machine is worth.
There's a second reason to repair rather than replace here: on modern MacBooks the storage is soldered to that same board. Replace the board and your files go with it.
Then say that first. Even where a board can't be economically repaired, we can very often recover the data from it — but only if we know that's the goal before we start.
Usually. A replacement swaps the whole board because that's the process. Component repair fixes the specific failure and keeps the storage that's soldered to it.
Most repairs have a price you can get online in seconds. This one doesn't, because nobody can tell you what a dead board needs without opening it — and a shop that quotes you a number over the phone is guessing.
So the diagnostic is $45, and it comes off the price of the repair if you approve it. If you decide not to go ahead, you've paid $45 for a real answer about your device instead of a guess.
Timing: most repairs leave the same day, port work included. Faults like this one are the exception — they have to be traced before they can be quoted, so it is usually one to three days.
Been near liquid at any point? Say so — it changes where we look first, and water-damage repair explains what that job involves.
Often the panel only — not Apple's whole assembly.
Including swollen cells lifting the trackpad.
Port, charging chip, or a fuse a bad charger blew.
Sticking keys, doubled letters, dead keys.
Time-critical. Sooner is dramatically cheaper.
