MacBook Pro 15" 2009 Mid
Hello all,
After I was done changing my old hdd to a new ssd, My Macbook couldn't boot up.
Whenever I try to boot up, only fan runs at maximum speed after one automatic reboot and just black screen on display.
(When I tried to change storage, I probably let the battery and power on. I guess smth went wrong because of it)
If someone knows how to fix it, please let me know. Thanks.
Is this a good question?

Before resetting the SMC
Reset the SMC only after you've tried all other standard troubleshooting. Try each of the following steps in this order before you reset the SMC. Test the issue after completing each troubleshooting step to see if the issue still occurs.
Press Command-Option-Escape to force quit any application that's not responding.
Put your Mac to sleep by choosing Sleep from the Apple menu. Wake the computer after it's gone to sleep.
Restart your Mac by choosing Restart from the Apple menu.
Shut down your Mac by choosing Shut Down from the Apple menu.
If your Mac isn't responding, force the Mac to shut down by pressing and holding the power button for 10 seconds. You'll lose any unsaved work in any open applications.
If you're using a Mac notebook computer that's having issues related to power or the battery:
Unplug the power adapter from your Mac and the electrical outlet for several seconds, then plug it back in.
Shut down your Mac.
Remove and re-insert the battery, if it's removable.
Restart your Mac.
If the issue still isn't resolved, you might need to reset the SMC. See the indicators and steps below.
Reset the SMC on Mac notebook computers
First, determine whether the battery is removable. Mac notebook computers that have a nonremovable battery include MacBook Pro (Early 2009) and later, all models of MacBook Air, MacBook (Late 2009), and MacBook (Retina, 12-inch, Early 2015) and later.
If the battery is nonremovable:
Shut down your Mac.
Unplug the MagSafe or USB-C power adapter from your computer.
Using the built-in keyboard, press Shift-Control-Option on the left side of the keyboard, then press the power button at the same time. Hold these keys and the power button for 10 seconds.
If you have a 2016 MacBook Pro with Touch ID, the Touch ID button is also the power button.
Release all keys.
Reconnect the power adapter.
Press the power button again to turn on your Mac.
If the battery is removable:
Shut down your Mac.
Disconnect the MagSafe power adapter from your computer.
Remove the battery. (Learn about removing the battery in MacBook and MacBook Pro computers.)
Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
Reconnect the battery and MagSafe power adapter.
Press the power button to turn on your Mac.

I found this when looking up my name on google, so i'm going to rewrite my post, (i wrote it when i was 8)
For fixing it,
Open up the macbook, and take out the motherboard. Apply heat using a hair gun to the processer (or it might be the processer, the thing labeled intel), put the computer back together. take out the battery, hold the power button for 30 seconds, plug in the plug, and press the powebutton. I'm going to try to delete the origanal comment, but the email is dead.

to fix your macbook pro turn it on and heat it up! if you want to speed it up unplug the fans
wait about a hour if your fans are pluged in
wait about a half hour if your fans are unpluged
and after power off the mac, plug in the fans and power it on the screen will power on
Done

Thank you thank you thank you Logan Hussey you’re brilliant it worked like a charm thank you so very much
I tried it with both the ways, fan plugged in and unplugged but my macbook pro retina 13" 2014 model is not getting hot.
Still the fan is spinning with no display.
:(
I even tried by removing battery and running on direct supply, still the same
Anything else you can suggest?
Any suggestions for a 2019 MacBook Air it’s the same exact thing fan runs but has a black screen
Just follow Logan Hussey’s instructions he’s a genius it works like a charm no logic board replacement required
