Please read If your Mac battery won’t charge - Apple Support. You will probably need to start with Check the hardware, specifically the steps regarding that Mac's power adapter and cable.


If you don't get anywhere read the applicable steps under If the indicator light flashes in If your MagSafe cable or power adapter isn't working - Apple Support.

I also faced the same issue with my brand new macbook pro m4 16GB RAM/512GB storage. It was around 70% charge and suddenly turned off when I was away for a while.


Now it's not charging and not even turning on. Magsafe 3 charger is blinking and type C ports are also not taking any power. No sign of water or dust.


It was just 1.5 months old since the purchase. Taking to the sellar tomorrow.


In the early days I noticed it was frozen one time and I had to restart.
