My MacBook pro 2018 won’t charge when its battery is dead

Yesterday I turned off my mac when it had only 5 % battery charge and today when I try to charge it it want show any sign of charging. It shows that the battery is dead but when I plug it it wont help.

Also I know that the charger is working for sure it charges my iPad.

And this happened two weeks ago and then I tried to charge it two days latter and it charged. How can I fix this issue?


Thanks

MacBook

More or less the same way. Leave it plugged in, and try resetting its SMC: How to reset the SMC of your Mac.

Ok, just be advised an iPad's power adapter will be inadequate for a Mac: Find the right power adapter and cable for your Mac notebook - Apple Support. Emphasis on the cable because it's frequently overlooked.
