Early 2015 model.
This morning I turned it on as is routine for me, with the battery charger attached. While I was in the kitchen making coffee, I smelled an electrical smell, something was overheating.
I walked around, back and forth, and I could not find where it was coming from. I also thought to myself, I have nothing under heavy load at the moment. Really, just the fridge, and that is not a heavy load.
Then, all of a sudden, as I am walking back from my bedroom to the living room, I noticed a BRIGHT ORANGE blinking light shining through the USB port on the right side, and fans at full throttle. The burning smell was coming from my MAC! So I unplugged the power, and shut it off immediately.
It's back on now without the battery charger attached. I am glad I caught it in time, or I don't know what this could have turned into?
Does anyone know what that blinking Orange Light means. I get the feeling that my battery was over charging?
