[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1911842, member: 56379"] With a 2015 MacBook Pro...got to be real careful how much money you spend on it. At least in the US...anything older than 7 years (which this MacBook Pro may be now)...Apple considers "obsolete"...and may not even work on it (even if you were willing to pay for full repairs). [URL unfurl="true"]https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201624[/URL] This leaves you with going to 3rd party repairs shops (or repair things yourself). These guys very likely won't troubleshoot it for free...thus you will be out some cash just to have things diagnosed (Apple probably would have diagnosed it for free). Of course more money if you have them repair it (parts & labor). This can add up fast...and be a significant percent of the computers value. I would suggest doing the best you can yourself. This usually means swapping known good parts for suspected bad parts. Purchase known good parts from places that accept returns...just in case the known good part you purchase doesn't correct the issue. Nick [/QUOTE]
