Last week I spilt some water on my mbp.

It went on the keyboard. I left it for a few days and then turned it on. Everything seemed to be working fine. However, I noticed when I take the charger cable out of the laptop the message saying are you sure you want to shut down comes up. When I click cancel it will just cut out.

So even with 100% charge I need to have the charger in.

Any ideas how this can be fixed?

also I have an app called battery inspector and it says that the battery health is at 92%.

Thanks
 
It's probably because of the water damage. You don't have many options; you could try replacing your battery yourself with a kit from iFixit or you could take it in to see how much Apple will charge you to replace it.

What makes it annoying is that you don't know if it's the battery, the power controller on the logic board, or something in between.
