I’ve been having an issue with a laptop where the laptop wasn’t booting up. I unplugged the battery and plugged in the charger alone and it started right up without me hitting the power button. If the battery is plugged into the laptop it will not boot up even if the laptop is plugged in. The battery does seem to be receiving a charge.
Hello everyone, Sorry for the delay in getting back. I finally found some time to tinker with the laptop a bit to see if any of the suggestions worked. I got the MacBook to turn on but the keyboard was unresponsive. I reseated all the cables and plugs on the board including the battery without plugging the charger back in and it seem to just kick on. I gave the laptop to a friend and told them to report back to me if anything went wrong in general with the machine. It’s been about 2 days since then and I haven’t heard any issues regarding the machine. Thanks to everyone trying to help with my question. This was my first real repair so I was uncertain on how to phrase the question when I asked. Thank you all once again.
