Apple MacBook Pro Retina 15” Mid 2012 “Battery Not Charging”
Apple MacBook Pro Retina 15” Mid 2012 “Battery Not Charging”
Battery was bulging and distorting the case but WAS holding charge. Replaced with OWC battery replacement kit.
Installed Fresh battery and bought a new charger which worked for about 5 months.
Now the battery is not charging.
I’ve just about exhausted all the reasonable means as far as I know.
- Computer passed every test in Tech Tool
- Charger is showing the orange light.
- PRAM and SMC have been reset.
- Mag Safe DC-In board have been replaced
- Battery Status shows good in Battery Health and Tech Tool
I am not getting any amperage/wattage and the voltage being supplied is SLOWLY dropping (according to battery health)
Additionally... under basic browsing the computer will just shutdown and immediately restart. I assume from the battery issue. So basically, the computer isn't very usable or reliable on wall power.
I’m at a loss and I certainly don’t want to pay for a logic board. Any ideas?
