[QUOTE="voca, post: 1665630, member: 314583"] Dim green light means that the power circuit is not closed and its not charging the battery, happens most of the time because of liquid damage. Check also the inside of the bottom cover for liquid traces, unless its been wiped clean. Since its showing a dim green light it means also that its most likely not the port. Start off by pulling the logic board, taking everything off so that you only have the bare board. Use a toothbrush to clean off dust and old thermal paste. submerge it in Isopropyl alcohol (electronics grade)for about an hour. clean it with the toothbrush while submerged. Let it sit out on some paper towels overnight to dry. Reassemble your machine, use fresh thermal paste and see if it fixes the issue. [/QUOTE]
