Yesterday night my MacBook pro 14inch 2021 was charging super normal just like out of the box.
But, upon updating the macOs to Sequoia it’s not charging even a bit, though charger and chord is showing that red dot, but it’s not taking up the current.
Tried everything but still no luck. At the end came know that it is charging when system is off( super slow).
please help!!

FIXED!!!! Just wanted to let you know I had your EXACT SAME ISSUE , with the exact same model mac and after 2 days trying almost everything to fix it and calling back and forth Apple support to no avail, I finally fixed it myself.
The way it worked for me is this:
My suspicion is that some kind of bug was messing up with the battery data and it needed the battery to be in a different "state" (in this case reserve battery) in order for it to start charging.
Let me know if doing this fixes it for you too!
P.S.
Some other people reported success by simply unplugging-plugging the battery back. but this requires to open your macbook and these new ones are not exactly very amateur friendly, so I wouldn't do that if you don't feel confident in your take-down skills.
I hope this helps!
I think I'm having similar problem.
I had no problem until I used Sequoia 15.1.
Yesterday, I've tried to update to 15.1.1.
When my m1 macbook is updating, battery was charging(around 30% left).
But after finish OS update, the led on magsafe was on(red), but there were no charging icon on top of the screen.
and then my mac was not charged anymore during power on.
However, If I turn off my macbook and connect charge cable, battery is charged very slowly.
i've tried every solution on this thread, but nothing worked for me.
(I've tried to empty battery on safemode, and detached battery, but both failed)
I want to believe this is kind of a software bug, and I hope apple to fix this very soon.
I am also having the same issue after a recent upgrade to Sequoia 15.1.1 and my Macbook Pro M1 battery is not charging, when I switch it off and connect with the charger some charge is happening but its very slow like 5-6% in 1 hour, please let me know how this was solved by other?
Same problem, folks. Updated to Sequoia last night—big mistake! Now the battery charges sometimes—sometimes not. And it’s making this terrible noise, every three minutes. EVERY. THREE. MINUTES. Clearly a bug with the new update. Sad! Apple should’ve fixed this ages ago. Unbelievable!
This helped. I use a MacBook Pro 2019, and like everyone, I recently updated to Sequoia 15.3. and the charging behaviour was erratic and incomprehensible.
Personally, this is horrible from Apple & their update team. I'm disappointed just to mention the least.
I hope everyone going through this finds a seamless solution.
I'm also afraid of the next OS update.
Checked just now, no rogue process found, ideal state is around 96-98% when no application is on.
Any other thing i can do? Thanks
Were you able to fix this issue. I have the same problem. I am stuck at 1%
This fixed my problem....weird as it was. Followed the above and now am charging via magsafe or usb-c......
Hi, have you found a solution for your M1 air? Mine is doing the exact same thing
My macbook fixed. One day, it started to be charged normarly. In my case, I think the time solved problem.
OMG!! it happened again after update to Sequoia 15.2.
Okay, now I’m a bit more worried about whether I should update or not. The last time, I had to get my motherboard replaced to fix this issue.
Same issue!!! Resetting SMC did not fix, reboot did not fix. APPLE YOU JUST BRICKED MY LAPTOP 😡😡😡 Any solution to this? Laptop is now dead, wont turn on, and wont charge!!!
MacBook Pro is not charging upon updating to Sequoia
