[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1799129, member: 46727"] Thanks for clarifying that. Yes, I agree that it's likely a video cabling problem since you can send the video to an external monitor ok. Try to track it down by going to [url]www.ifixit.com[/url] and take a look at their disassembly instructions. The cables that are most likely to give trouble are the ones that pass thru the lid to the display. Since the lid of the MacBook Pro is opened and closed many times this may lead to excess cable wear. We have seen this before with older MacBook Pros. Your machine is a 2013 model approaching 5 years of use. As for the battery, you might be able to find a genuine Apple OEM replacement, but of that I'm not sure. I know you can find a replacement battery (not OEM) on eBay. Let us know if we can be of more assistance. [/QUOTE]
