I have to unplug/reconnect battery and attach magsaf to turn laptop on
To turn on my Macbook Pro I have to disconnect/reconnect battery and attach magsafe charge cable before powering on. Once it powers on I can disconnect magsafe and it holds charge fine. but once I turn it off it will not turn back on with or without the magsafe attached. I then have to repeat the above procedure to turn on every single time. Help!
This symptom is post replacing screen and keyboard as well as applying fresh thermal paste. So obviously I did something when I took it apart I simply do not know what and have not found an existing answer to this issue.
I have done spotaneous reboot (Unplug the battery and the magSafe. Press and hold the power on button for 10 seconds. Reconnect the battery and Mag-Safe.)
I have also done power on for two-three cycles while holding command+option+P+R
Any other tricks out there that can help me?
This issue is totally worth having the numbers on my keyboard work and the screen fixed. However, having the luxury of being able to power on without unscrewing the base plate unplugging/reconnecting the battery and plugging into the magsafe charge cord is something that I hope I can get back.
Is this a good question?
