Hello,
first comment since the story of this MBP has been long and hard ... Has gone through Apple Tech Support three times, and all construction failings. First was the screen (showing internal cracks), the second was HD and the third was SuperDrive.
The use of the MBP was intensive, and therefore the battery died 3 months ago so I bought a compatible battery until today it's doing pretty workaround. Discuss the MagSafe also died (irrelevantly stopped working one day), and I bought a friend's one, no longer used because he bought a new MBP and didn't need it.
Then this morning I was using the laptop without plugging when, suddenly went out. I thought the battery was finished but it's not, the battery shows 4/5 LED charge, and then I plugged the charger, then it turned on and showed me that left more than three quarters of the battery in the CoconutBattery. Well, I reset the PRAM and PMU, and turns back on, but when I unplug, it turns off instantly, as if there were no battery. The LED on the MagSafe is green, and shows me up in the battery "not charging". Then I go back to reset the PMU, and the laptop will not turn... And the strangest thing, the MagSafe LED flashing green flashes at full speed (like half a second). I have disconnected, reconnected, and no solution...
I'm desperate, I can not find answers or solutions and Apple's solutions doesn't solve anything. I'm afraid I will need to visit for the fourth time the Apple Tech Service... And I'm afraid it's going to be something expensive...
Any idea or solution? Thanks in advance to all... And sorry for my english.
