LVDS Cable Issue - Extremely Hot?
Hi everyone,
I just bought a MBP 15" which had a broken screen, the plan was to install a new LCD, which all went without a hitch. However the LCD is still not displaying any image, only the backlight (this is what was happening with the old LCD).
I also noticed that around 5cm of the clutch cover on the far left (where the LVDS cable is underneath) gets EXTREMELY hot within 1 minute of the computer being on. I'm talking 'can't hold my finger on it' hot. I then unplugged the cable from the logic board and noticed a few of the pins had black on them, suggesting maybe a short somewhere?
Do I need a new LVDS cable? or can I somehow fix this. Please tell me I can, because I dread taking off the glass bezel again.

Hi. I had the same exact issue today, same machine. Perfectly working machine on external monitor but white screen and hot connector. Checked the connector on the logic board, everything was ok. Checked the LVDS cable connector and I discovered two bent pins, first two on the left side. By carefully putting them back to their original position I was able to restart the machine and get the regular picture on the display. Hope this can help others. Cheers from Italy.
