MacBook Hinge Repair

MacBook Hinge Issues

Hinge issue generally gets worse with time. They may even advance and affect the functionality of the screen. As soon as you detect a loose hinge, avail your Mac for repair to prevent more costly repairs and replacements in the future. 

The following issues signal that there is a problem with your MacBook hinge;

• A wobbling screen: Both ends of your screen should move in unison. A wobbling screen means that the left or the right side moves slightly further when you open the monitor lid. When the computer is shaken, instead of the screen remaining intact and steady, it dances back and forth.
• A monitor lid that does not close: There should be no space left between the keyboard area and the monitor frame when you close your laptop. If the contrary happens, it may signal that a hinge is off hence pushing the monitor lid slightly upwards.
• A squeaky or creaky noise from the hinge area: This noise is caused by a broken hinge. The parts would be struggling to work in harmony due to friction from detached components.
• A broken base right under the hinge section: A broken base occurs from mechanical damage such as when your computer falls and lands on its hinge edges. A piece of the base that holds the hinge in place may break off weakening the hinge as a result.
