MBP 15 2016 Not Charging / Charging Intermittently

Hi,


My MBP is not charging properly. It will begin charging, then the display will say it is not charging. It seems to switch a lot. I have tried changing plus and adapters, rebooting, etc. Software is up to date.


Before I go to the genius bar, are there any other things to try?


Thanks,


Richard

You do not say what exact Mac /model /year /size /retina /TouchBar is this

or

what exact macOS you are currently running?
