    MacBook Pro Charges When Off, But Not When On (MBP 2014 15 Inch) 820-3662-A

    Hello everyone,

    I'm facing an issue with my MacBook Pro.

    When it's switched off, it charges while the battery is connected. However, when it's powered on, the charging stops after a few seconds.

    Another strange thing is that when I disconnect the battery and plug in the charger, the MacBook Pro turns on and runs without any issues.

    I've already tried using a different OEM charger, but no luck. I even swapped the charging port DC-IN, but the problem persists.

    Has anyone else experienced this issue before?

    Thank you!

    What is the power rating of the charger? Are you sure the charger is an original and not 3rd party or a fake?

    When you lose even the green led onboard, you have lost the 3v42 voltage rail. Do you have a multimeter for some testing?

      Hi thank you for your reply. I am using original 85W Magsafe 2 charger and it is in good condition. I used coconut battery to check and this is what i saw.

      When battery is at around 77.2% Charger not connected (Image 1)

      After 3min charging on (Image 2)

      After 10min charging on (Image 3)

      After 11min charging stopped (Image 4, Image 5)

      ​Battery removed and charger connected system running. (Image 6)

        See attached. Review D7005 = dual, common cathode diode.

        Remove all power. Disconnect the battery. Disconnect the power adapter.

        Meter in DIODE mode.

        Place the red meter lead onto pin #1 of this diode (anode); black meter lead onto pin #3. Meter should conduct.

        Reverse the meter leads and the meter should now block (OL).

        Repeat with pins #2 and #3. Post each measurement.

            If PP3V42_G3H was lost, the machine wouldn't run anymore.

                  MacBook Air 13 2014 - Remove EFI password
                  by ritalo
                  Hello,

                  I have a MacBook Air 13 inches 2014.

                  I have set a EFI password and I can't remember it : now I want to reinstall macOS and I can't because the MacBook is asking for the password.

                  I know how to remove the password with a usb programmer.
                  I plug the usb programmer to the motherboard and to my pc with usb, I read the EFI and I save it to a file.

                  Then I have to find this value in the file : $SVS because it indicate where is the password.

                  But I can't find the value.

                  I have attached the file​

                  Thank...

                  MacBook Pro 2018 with Activation Lock
                  by envym
                  Hi everyone!

                  I have a 2018 MacBook Pro (with Sequoia OS) that I've been using for years with no problem. I recently received an M2 MacBook Pro so I'm mostly using it and not the 2018 one, but since a friend of mine needs a computer, I thought I could restore my 2018 and give it brand-new-like to my friend.

                  I tried using the built-in tool to restore the MacBook (Settings > General > Transfer or restore > Delete) but it got stuck when trying to remove the Find Device configuration (it asked me for the password for my old Apple ID -now I use the same account but...

                  Hello,

                  I have a MacBook Air 11 inches 2014 and its EFI is corrupted.
                  I use it with a card connected to the motherboard that replace the EFI.

                  I know how to flash the EFI with a usb programmer but I don't know where to find a good EFI file.

                  Thank you if you can help me

                  macbook pro 820-3462 charges very slowly
                  by donnos
                  Received a macbook pro which in notification shows 7 or 10 hours until full during charging.

                  have replaced ISL6259 and Q7055 and still getting same results. current sensing resistors measured fine @ 0 and 2ohms. what else could be the issue?
                  without battery i get 12.58V. i have physically shorted Q7055 drain to source to rule out issue with the mosfet and can confirm its still the same. any suggestions?

                  when i shutdown it charges at only 16.5v 0.5A. during boot PSU draws 2.5-3A suggesting it momentarily charges but drops to 1.5A power draw after boot.
