Magsafe 3 with blinking amber light and not charging

Hi, I got my MacBook Pro 14 earlier this year and everything works perfectly when it arrived.

The first time I got this issue was somewhere in March, when the MagSafe 3 started not charging after a few weeks, it kept blinking amber light. I went to a local authorised repairer and they got the cable replaced.


After I got a new cable from Apple, everything worked fine again, until, in mid-May, this happened again. This time I unplugged the cable for a few minutes and it started working again, except the cable was totally dead after a few days. The cable light was totally gone and it would heat up when plugged in. So I immediately went to the same repairer and they did another replacement for me.


Here come another 2 months and today I woke up to only see the MagSafe 3 blinking again. It had been working fine since today and I have tried to make it works again but it just won't work.


I wonder if there is anyone having the same experience with me?
