Hi guys, It’s been a while my MacBook’s screen was flickering but I could fix if by change the position of the screen. From 2 days it’s now impossible, my screen is always flickering unless I hold it with une hand ans pinch it (which is not convenient aha) I read threads about display câble or inverter cable but I’d like your expertise. As you can see on the pictures the screen is ok if I pinch it or press the hinge. Thx for your help!
Pressing on the side of the display implies your LCD has a TAB error where the vacuum deposited metal surface and the ribbon cable which carries the signal to the driver board has come detached. If pressing is no longer improving things I think its time to look at replacing the display assembly.

This solves the backlight flicker but not the display flicker.
