[QUOTE="qixote, post: 1738674, member: 385309"] MacBook Pro 15 Mid-2012 Following Upgrade to 16GB RAM/1TB SSD Battery status indicates 0% Indicator on magsafe connector is GREEN Computer shuts off completely when disconnected from power. Re-opened and found L fan connector disconnected. Not sure if unintentionally by me when opening or if loose when received. Reconnected. Seems like too much of a coincidence that this happened after I worked on it, but I can't find any obvious problem, once the fan was reconnected. Reset of SMC seemed to work briefly once, but problem returned and subsequent SMC and PRAM resets fail. Battery connector appears normal. I consider hdd and RAM user serviceable, but I'm worried that my vendor may not, even if battery fail is unrelated to my upgrade. Thanks for considering. Eric [/QUOTE]
