Hello,
I have a 2009 MBP that has been incredible to me over the years.
Unfortunately, my power chord / battery has been having issues lately.
At first, the power chord would only be recognized (light up) and charge when the chord was placed in certain positions. If you moved, or stepped on the chord or the chord moved, the connection would be lost and the light would go down.
Now, the chord won't light up or charge no matter what position I put it in. I have done the battery reboots and all that good stuff.
Any idea on if the battery has to be replaced (I haven't had to yet) or if I need a new chord. Or is it something more than that? Would taking it to an apple store do the right tests on it?
Thanks for any help you can offer!
