Thanks so much for this, Kristen. I managed to fix my T460 by replacing the LCD cable using this guide.

The symptoms were quite odd: the slightest movement of the laptop hinge (even a touch, sometimes) would cause the screen to go blank and the laptop to go into hibernation. I could get it back out again using the normal method (pressing the power button), but it was happening all the time. I guessed that it was the wiring of the LCD cable causing this, so I replaced it with a branded Lenovo replacement and now it works fine.
