Everything ok, only now my screen won`t turn off when I close the lid... Any theories?
My problem started when the charger wasn't green or orange, it was dim. I replaced the battery and the computer worked, it just wouldn't charge still. So I bought the mag connector and did this whole repair and the light is still dim! Please help me and give me the next thing I should do and call, five one eight, four seven eight, four one four two!
I have the same problem, did my battery replacement and now is not charging at all, only the dim light of the mag. Did you solved this?
