I currently have an Apple MagSafe 2 Charger 85W and I use it with my 2015 MacBook Pro 15. I also have an Apple MagSafe 1 Charger 85W and I want to use it with my MacBook Pro. I purchased the MagSafe 1 to MagSafe 2 adapter to use it but for some reason, the charge LED does not light up when I attach it to my computer. But for some reason, the computer reports that it is charging despite all the fields being blanked out in the system information tab. I tried switching orientations on both the MagSafe adapter and the MagSafe cable itself but that didn't seem to fix anything.
I know that the MagSafe 1 charger works as the light illuminates when I use my older 2012 MacBook Pro and 2010 MacBook Air.
Is the light supposed to illuminate when using the adapter or is my adapter defective? I tried to clean both the MagSafe 1 plug and both sides of the adapter and the MagSafe port with isopropyl alcohol but that didn't seem to fix things.
