Power supply directly over battery connector
Hi,
My Macbook has got a issue on the logic board and so the battery is not charging over the normal power supply but it is working fine with the battery. My question is if it is possible to connect the power adapter directly to the battery connector.
If this is possible, could somebody tell me which of the 7 cables of the battery connector are the right ones.
This is my only hope to get my macbook to work again.. So I have nothing to lose if my experiment fails.
thanks for your answers!
Is this a good question?

Added the correct link to the device. As I learned the hard way, it's important.

Hi Sean, I have the same problem, mac book pro 13 won't charge, but if I plug it to the AC charger, the battery won't discharge either. Once by fluke when I had my time machine drive connected - the batt did reach 80 charge. But never again. So all I do is keep it plugged and use but my charge is stuck at 40 and slowly loosing it.. Was thinking if I can remove and charge the battery directly. Were you able to find a solution for direct connection?? Apple guys are askin my to change The logic board and my machine is 3 years old....
Thank u
