Macbook Air not charging

Computer is only two years old, when I plug in my charger, the light is green but I do not have a full charge. My battery condition is normal and the light will change back to orange if I gently press the charger into the port, but that doesn't always work either. Ive tried multiple outlets, and resetting the SMC.

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 10.15

Run the Apple Diagnostics.


Here is an Apple article for troubleshooting Magsafe charging issues:

Unplug the power adapter from the electrical outlet for a minute to reset the charger's internal circuitry. Try using another electrical outlet.


If you still have issues, then you will need to have Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider examine the laptop and provide you a quote for the repair.
