Powers On automatically, without power Button
Hi !
I have a Black 2006 Macbook (2.0 CD) that used to be working fine but since i changed the LCD unit yesterday i have i problem with it.
When i plug in the Magsafe adapter, it starts automatically, without having to press the Power button, it just starts by it self as soon as it's plugged... (even without any top case plugged)
I tried the following :
- Reset SMC
- Reset PRAM
- Tried different top cases
- Changed Magsafe board
- Tried different Magasafes
- Tried unplugging almost everything on board
All without success !
I am a bit clueless.
If someone can help me out it would be greatly appreciated :)
Thanks
Is this a good question?

Same behavior when connecting a charged battery instead of the magsafe AC adapter ?

Hi Lemerise. I just tested and it is not starting automatically with just a working battery plugged in. As for when the magsafe is plugged while battery present, it did not light up automatically 6 times out of 8 (but started automatically 2 times still)
And as soon as i remove the battery and plug in magsafe, always starts automatically... Weird, you have any idea of what cause be causing this ? Thanks

Did you replace only the LCD panel or the complete display assy including cables ?

I replaced the LCD pannel with it's cable (display, microphone, wi-fi, inverter power) and swapped with another LCD from different macbook

Since the problem began when you replaced the display I'd disconnect the inverter cable, LVDS cable, airport cables and microphone cable and try to connect the magsafe adapter to check if the problem persists. If not then the issue could be a short somewhere in the display cabling.
