magsafe 60w 2010 not working

Hi I have recently been in europe and my charger for my macbook pro would not work. I presumed it was with being abroad. However I am now unable to get t to work back in the UK. The pins in the L shaped piece all look ok and a friends adapter worked fine. Is there a fuse inside the adapter or a possible solution?

MacBook Pro, OS X El Capitan (10.11)

To buy a replacement Apple MagSafe for that model computer is advised; though

there may be a fuse inside the case (haven't seen a repair guide showing one) it

may be something you could investigate after obtaining a replacement MagSafe.


An example of type of 'fix' for cable broken at adapter end, not near magnet end:

While there may be an internal 'fuse' inside an Apple MagSafe power adapter, it is

not an easy task to take-apart to find this to be the case (or not). Get another first.

Good luck & happy computing! 🙂
