1 MacBook Pro Shutting Down By Itself
Dear iFixit Community,
In 2019, a little water was spilled over my MacBook Pro A1502 on macOS 10.14.6.
While it still ran just fine, it was now shutting itself down after five seconds of inactivity, i.e. no key press or trackpad interaction.
Unable to work, I took my laptop to Apple and their answer was a complete replacement for both the logic board and the keyboard… Seeing the repair was almost as expensive as a new Mac, I got back home with my half-broken computer.
After trying a plethora of things, I realized my Mac would not shut itself down if I kept a piece of duct tape over a keyboard key to have it pressed down all the time. Also, this mystery never happened while running Linux.
Finally tried to remove the tape a few months ago, and to my surprise, this odd issue never reappeared… Until this week. Why? Nothing happened, so I really have no idea.
To write this message, I had to tape down my function key again, but I thought some of you might have a better solution?
Anyway, thank you for reading. <3

@pandanam - Well I see you problem! Your battery has had it! The battery is only rated for 1000 cycles! You've pushed it to 2,471 !! Way beyond what it can offer and the design capacity also reflex the poor state of the battery. Here's the needed part MacBook Pro 13" Retina (Late 2013-Mid 2014) Battery and the guide to put it in
