Does anyone know what’s wrong with my Mac book? I have had this laptop for three years so the apple care is expired, but I was also wondering a best estimate at what it would cost to repair it or should I just invest in the M1 or M2 MacBook Air?

A damaged MacBook has no trade-in value until you have it repaired.


Based on your situation, I recommend service.
