macbook pro 2018 with touch bar, out of warranty, battery completely dead , showing zero on charging,

this seems like a manufacturing defect as the battery dosnt give up completely ,showing zero while charging.

this is so wierd as apple is loosing its trust and other brand are getting better with quality now.

Macbook Pro 15, 2018 battery drained and not charging Hello, My Macbook pro 15, 2018 battery is not charging. It actually happened after an update. I tried resetting the SMC, but nothing happened, tried all the ports. In addition there is no sound that the battery is charging. Nevertheless, the charger itself works, I tried it with other devices (headphones, phone) and it charges fine. USB-C cable works fine as well. Furthermore, everything was working totally fine several hours before. Another issue is that I cannot turn on the Macbook, because the battery is drained and it turned of. It showed and indicator to plug in the power at first, but now it does not even show this. Is there anything else I can do or should I go to the maintenance store?

Battery suddenly shows "Replace Now" for brand new MacBook Pro 2019 TouchBar Hello, I purchased my MacBook Pro 2019 two weeks ago and everything was working fine until a day ago when it showed the battery could not charge. I have already tried resetting the SMC (4 times) but the issue is still there. I cant charge the MacBook and the battery is stuck at 94% but when I remove the charger it goes off immediately. I have attached a screenshot of the battery cycle count and it shows 21 but it shows the battery is not charged at all, and the condition shows replace now. Is there any solution or I simply replace it using AppleCare+?

MacBook Pro 2015 not charging after battery change Yesterday while using my MacBook Pro retina 13” 2015 A1502 , it did get unplugged while I moved it off the table but as soon as the magnetic charger touched the charging port (before it even connected), it immediately shut off. The charger no longer was working for some reason,(no light at all) it had been working fine prior (third party charger) , my MacBook has recently had its battery replaced (14 cycles) and battery health is pristine. My MacBook is now dead and I can’t get it to charge at all, tried PRAM resetting , it also shuts off mid MSC rebooting . tried taking the better out and reconnecting everything, still no change

Try an SMC reset.

Have you tried the other USB-C ports especially on the other side of the laptop?

I this doesn't work, then take the laptop and your charger & cable to Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider to be examined. With some laptops there are other internal items which can affect charging.
