Battery does not charge, MacBook will not run off AC.
Hi guys,
Hopefully you guys can help.
I think something has shorted out in my Macbook.
i have not spilt anything on it, i was testing a charger and simply removed it and the machine shutdown.
When plugging in a new charger no light comes on.
The machine will still power on and run off the battery but simply does not charge. The Battery indicator lights still work.
The machine does not seem to run off the AC Adapter either.
I have tried:
-Replacing the DC Board
-unplugging the battery to see if the macbook will run solely on AC but nothing.
-SMC reset (don't know if that's the right one but the key combo for resetting the power management).
-New charger
Any help would be appreciated as the laptop still works fine, besides charging.
EDIT -- VIDEO THAT SHOWS MY EXACT PROBLEM... the spark is alot bigger in the video though.
Bu iyi bir soru mu?

FIXED - So after a long few hours of dreading that my logic board is gone... i pulled it apart again reconnected everything, still did not work..
i tried smc resets numerous times.. still nothing.
i unplugged and replugged another charger a handful of times until it seemed like the laptop shorted out again.. and when it came back the charger light returned and everything is working. weird.

Correct myself its not fixed :(
i went to plug my charger back in this morning and the charge light did not come on.. i replugged it again and it shorted out (looks like the charger is shorting between the body and pins, which turns the laptop off.) are there any keys components that could blow and then enable my macbook to short out when plugging and unplugging the charger???

I suspect you have blown one or more of the FETs. After popping the bottom cover off, locate the battery connector, just above it are two FETs they are the five pinned devices one large pin on one side and four smaller pins on the other. Is there any staining or damage around them and the other devices around them.
