Hi,
I'm having another issue with my macbook and I think it might be terminal this time.

It's failing to start or charge, I have tried various batteries and MagSafes but it didn't solve the issue so I am certain the issue is with the MacBook.

I did a bit of searching on here and noticed the DC in board was a common failure so I replaced it with a used part I found on eBay but that didn't fix it either.

What do you guys think? Motherboard failure? I need a new MagSafe and battery which will probably set me back £150+ so should I bin it and get an entry level pro.

It's out of warranty but I might try the Genius Bar to see If they can diagnose it.

Thanks
