[QUOTE="Blockis, post: 1607685, member: 333975"] Hey guys! So I sniped a MBP on eBay, and I prettied her all up and everything. However, I'm having issues getting her to actually charge. The charger that came with the laptop looks pretty awful, so I got an aftermarket one on Amazon. With either charger (new or one included) I don't see any light indicator (no green, no orange). I tried resetting the SMC with the Shift-Ctrl-Option-Power buttons, but I don't know if there's a way to know if it was reset or not. I took a toothbrush to the MBP charging port, but it didn't help. I kind of want to hope that it's just the DC-in board and not the whole logic board, but is there anything I can test internally to try and narrow my options down? [/QUOTE]
