No Blue Tooth Hardware Found

Hey all,


This past week my blue tooth has been reading "Blue Tooth: Not Available." I finally had some time to investigate it tonight and following instructions from another thread I have reset my MBP's SMC and PRAM. I have also deleted the com.apple.Bluetooth.plist file and rebooted. I have even gone as far as download Xcode and use the Bluetooth Explorer tool to "factory reset" bluetooth. No luck.

SO I decided to reinstall Yosemite... still not available.


Blue tooth is completely missing from system preferences and when I try to access the Blue tooth app from finder I am prompted with a message reading "No Bluetooth Hardware Found."


My Mac is a Mid 2012 MBP running 10.10.4


Any advice will help, thanks in advance!

MacBook Pro, OS X Yosemite (10.10.4)

There are no, IMHO, steps to be taken beyond what you have already tried.


I suggest you take it in for testing/diagnosis.
