[QUOTE="salth2oj, post: 1829681, member: 403273"] Hello All, This is my first post and first time troubleshooting a MacBook laptop. This is what i know. Prior to not "turn on" we were experiencing trackpad issues. The "click" at times wouldn't work. Now this laptop will not power on. Being it has a USB-C connection i have no visible indication if the battery is being charged or is charged. Tho if hooked to the power pack the batteries are getting warm. The power pack and cable were replaced with new one off Ebay. I tried the SMC reset, still no luck. By the battery LED (by the battery connector) is lit, dim but lit. Not sure how bright it should be. It does go out when the drain button is pressed. I opened the case and removed the cable for the trackpad, still no luck with the laptop turning on-still dead. I'm think it might be the batteries, but not sure. I really could use some pointers on what to check. Thanks!! [/QUOTE]
