Which LCD component to replace due to heat damage?
My mom has a Macbook Pro 15" and she was sitting at a desk that had a candle on it. She opened the lid of the MBP and the back of the lid was over the candle.
The LCD now has a dark patch on the screen. The back panel is not damaged and the picture is still clear in the damaged area but there is almost a shadow where the damage is. I don't know much about how LCD's work but to me it looks a little like the light diffuser is damaged. The dark area is about 2" from the right hand side of the screen and right near the top of the screen. The damaged area is about 1.5" by 1" and oval shaped.
What is the best way to diagnose this? Ideally I would just like to replace the damaged component.
Would a photo help or is my description good enough?
Thanks in advance!
