The display started acting up (there used to be horizontal flickering on screens with a lot of white colours) yesterday when it would literally show wide vertical lines when opened beyond 90 degree angle. I opened it up to see if the display cable is loose so I disconnected and reconnected it and then the Macbook won’t turn on. [br]

I disconnected the battery before I disconnected anything. Now there’s no chime, display or anything after plugging in the charger and pressing the power button. [br]

After I press the power button, the battery light on the inside, not the screen, doest light up, though. [br]

I ordered a display flex cable just in case but at this point, I don’t know what else could’ve happened. Does a defective/disconnected display cable affect the power of the Macbook? Like, not even a chime after pressing the power button?

What else can I try now?
