My MBP 13 Retina Early 2015 won’t give any sign of life either.

It's only when I let battery die, or shutdown, that I have to open laptop, disconnect the battery, and repeat the process. Oh and I can also restart without any problems. I indeed seem have an issue with the power button but as long as I maintain charge in the battery I don't have to use the power button, I can just easily continue to put it to sleep and waking it back up using just the lid.

I then put it back to sleep by closing the lid and connecting the battery back in.

Could the logic board die out so soon? How to pinpoint if it is indeed the logic board?įirst, determine whether the battery is removable.

Its been only a year and three months I bought this in India. Disconnected and reconnected the battery connector - still no life. SMC reset - With the magsafe adapter connected, when I do the reset the charge indicator turns green from orange.Ģ. I opened the mac and saw no visible corrosion or moisture(two tiny dots below the battery case are white and haven't turned red)ġ. So assumed that the battery is charging fine. I charged it completely till the magsafe indicator turned green, still does not turn on.

I charged it for another 10 minutes and tried to switch on, but no luck. The Pro had less than 10% charge when it suddenly shut down. (However, I had kept a steaming bowl of hot water right next to the laptop.But this was in an open kitchen) The battery was grossly swollen to the point where the touchpad wasn’t working.My Macbook Pro suddenly shut down and is not turning on, no chime, no Apple logo. The battery I removed was an original Apple battery, albeit with a third party adapter at the time. I’ve cleared NVRAM and done an SMC reset (without battery), but I still have the above issue. I’m not sure if my AC adapter is an original Apple power adapter, and I’m not sure if that is affecting the SMC. I am running my MBP on AC power and without a battery as I’m waiting for a replacement battery from a third-party. Note: No performance warning level has been recordedīACKGROUND: The reason I wish to know the answer to my question is because my MacBook Pro (15-inch, Early 2011) High Sierra 10.13.6 is throttling my CPU unnecessarily as it’s running very cool (roughly 50˚C via smcFanControl). Note: No thermal warning level has been recorded I’m not a registered Apple developer, but I have searched some of their archives with no success. Yet I cannot find out how to alter the CPU_Speed_Limit variable. Pmset must be run as root in order to modify any settings.
