#A1278 2011 charger windows
Could the entire logic board be fried? Is there a way to troubleshoot which components could be causing the failure?įor the record, the only thing done to this MacBook that is out of the ordinary would be about 6 years ago I created a Bootcamp partition that runs Windows, but I haven't even booted into Windows for at least 3 years. Would really like some input from anyone who knows more about this stuff. My plan from here is to go in and replace the new Magsafe DC-in board with the old one, as that is the only thing that changed since the new issue (#2 above) started occuring, so at the very least I want to try and get rid of that.

After installing the new battery absolutely nothing changed (same battery X symbol, shutdown whenever unplugged, charger only showed green light).

Moving onto hardware, I first started by buying a new battery and replacing it. Either way, I definitely reset the SMC later on when disconnecting and reconnecting the battery, and that did not fix the issue. For the SMC reset, it was difficult to tell whether or not it actually reset the SMC, because after holding the keys for the required time and booting the computer, nothing was out of the ordinary, but I'm not sure if there should be something different that happens that lets you know the SMC was successfully reset or not.

For the NVRAM I'm pretty sure it worked properly because it repeatedly rebooted until I let go of the keys, but still the problem wasn't fixed. The first thing I tried (after doing some research) was to reset both the NVRAM and the SMC. Whenever I unplugged the charging cable, the computer would shut down soon after, indicating that it wasn't able to power the computer without being plugged in. Hi! First off I understand this is the wrong sub for this question, but I am at my wits end here! I figure you're all experts at being sysasdmins here so probably know a thing or two about common problems with the machines themselves.Ī couple of weeks ago, my MacBook Pro (13" Late 2011) started to display a X symbol on the battery icon, and the light on my charging cable would only show up as green (never orange).
