I recently acquired a MacBook pro 17" Mid 2009. I got it fairly cheap for parts. After check it out. I found out that it didn't turn on.
I tried everything untill I got it to turn on by removing the battery and plugging it back in and pressing the power button.
After it turned on I installed mac os x El Capitan on it.
With no problems or shutdowns.
After I turned it off. I tried to turn it on the next day and it did nothing when pressing the power button.
So I took the cover off again and plugged and unplugged the battery many times again untill it turned on again.
Even after leaving it for about 4 hours it doesn't turn on. I have to keep messing with it to turn on
What could cause this issue?
