MacBook Pro charging issue
- When charging the symbol at the top showing it's plugged in, goes off and on and it just started doing that a few days ago. I have plugged it in different places and it doesn't change. Could the battery be going bad?

You can try resetting— unplug all cables, charger from power source and Mac for 60 sec. and plug everything back in
not exactly your issue however—more trouble shooting here—
Check for line noise issues
