I have a MacBook Air early 2015. I replaced the battery in in 2021 with one from Ifixit.
Recently my Mac has started to randomly shut down, somtimes it will run all day and at other times it will tunr off after a couple of hours..
The report in System shows the battery has 131 counts and is normal.
I ran Apple Diagnostics and the report shows :-
PPT004
The battery requires a service. The battery is not functioning normally but you may not notice a change in its behaviour or the amount of charge it holds. You can continue to use your battery before it’s checked without harming your computer.
I might also add that I have ran the SMC and NVRAM/PRAM tests.
I realise the battery is now a few years old but is it normal that with the low cycle count the battery would again need replacement?
Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks
