3 things that could be wrong after this troubleshooting:
-
-removed thunderbolt port in Network Preferences problem still persisted[br]
+
# CPU Core voltage is causing the random shutdown
+
# iGPU is bad (requires logic board replacement)
+
# Logic board needs to be replaced
+
Before throwing in the towel to replace the logic board I attempted to try to code the python script posted by Anders Wiggers myself with no success as I ‘ not a coder and spent 3 hours wrecking my brain. so I decided to use the Mac-Mods software for $10 and ran the software which creates a gear spinning on the bar and voila the laptop no longer randomly shuts down!
+
Updated to Mojave and just an FYI the gear is no longer in the bar but the laptop does not randomly shut down.

before throwing in the towel to replace the logic board i attempted to try to code the python script posted by anders wiggers myself with no success as i am not a coder and spent 3 hours wrecking my brain. so i decided to use the mac mod software for 10$ https://realmacmods.com/product/macbook-pro-nocrash-utility/ and ran the software which creates a gear spinning on the bar and voila the laptop no longer randomly shuts down!!! updated to Mojave and just an fyi the gear is no longer in the bar but the laptop does not randomly shut down. The problem is CPU core voltage related which is corrected by the python script or the macmods software for 10$. if this does not work it is most likely a logic board issue.
