MacBook will not run on battery

Hi,

My MacBook is running Snow Leopard will not start up on battery, after 3 secs and some optical drive noise it shuts off. With charger attached it keeps cycling trying over and over to boot.

When I removed battery and reset SMC holding the power switch with battery and AC disconnected it will start on the MagSafe. This is a new battery I have struggled to fully charge and discharge twice but still if it does start on battery is shuts down after a few mins of operation.

I had this attached to a FireWire audio interface and external monitor and stupidly left charger always connected. I have reset SMC, PRAM, out of Ideas

Any help thanks

Hi thanks for reply. Between shutdowns these are screen shots from the app:

@a1mac - Martin the battery looks like a newer battery. Lets give the diagnostics a try do you still have the grey installation CD's. One will be labeled diagnostics. using it to boot up your system see what it tells you.

Hi Dan I purchased this secondhand and do not have the CDs.

Not good, Can you contact the seller to get them? Otherwise you'll need to find someone local who can diagnose the issue.

There's a good chance the logic board has a problem. Maybe it would be smarter returning it and getting your money back so you can get a better system,

Hi Martin,

Definitely try a new battery.

Sometimes these apps are a good guide, but I would still be thinking this battery needs replacing.

@iphonerepairman - The battery looks good! I'm suspecting there's a logic board issue.

Dan 의 2019년 3월 4일

No problem you can try sourcing a new logic board, though it would be a cheaper option to buy a new battery, even to just confirm. This is more likely to fix it and wouldn't be too expensive if it didn't fix it.

@iphonerepairman - Go to the first image on the battery details we can see the battery is only 80 days old made on '18-12-11
