[QUOTE="MacsWork, post: 1583729, member: 11094"] My 2012 MBP had a similar issue. Mine was a result of the ribbon cable that connects the wireless card and the logic board. Initially I could reseat the cable and it would work for a few days. What ended up being the case was that the welds in the plastic housing that snapped onto the logic board weakened to the point that the failed completely. I brought it to my local Apple Store (no AppleCare) explaining the issue. The part was $11 bucks and they waived the install fee of $39. I was out the door in 25min. This is most likely a hardware issue for you as well. The 2012 has a different setup and cable, but the cable certainly could have been damaged just by removing it. I later found my part online for more than I paid at the Apple Store. Even if you pay the $39 diagnostic it might be worth it. [/QUOTE]
