PPP003 error in MID 2014 MacbookPro's

[vinayraddi]

In last week i got my new and first macbook pro (mid 2014) i was really happy , after todays i ran the diagnostics test using ("d") on startup and after that checking i got the error "PPP003" i contacted apple care and they said it is manufacturing defect and i just returned the product , after that i reordered the product from different seller and got my laptop yesterday (mid 2014) macbook pro , and again i ran the test with the new hardware again i got the same error "PPP003" i really wondered , it is so weird that it only shows when my battery is charging , shows me "ADP000" No issues found when the battery is full and diagnosed , as it stated that it was fault from magsafe adapter i tried using my adapter in my late 2013 MBP but it showed me no error , both of my late and mid 2014 MPS's run 10.10 and only difference is it has diagnostic firmware(1.0.6) and mid 2014 has (1.0.11r2) , do you think it is a bug in firmware or else it is a hardware defect , my battery parameters got checked by apple care and turned out be working fine and no technical issues like lagging,battery heating,sudden discharge and charge etc

Please reply me ASAP

Hello vinayraddi,

I just ran a Hardware Diagnostic over my mid 2014 MacBook Pro 13" Retina and got the same error message as you. The Mac is freshly bought around 3 weeks ago.
I use BatteryHelth from AppStore to keep an eye on my Mac's battery. I must say that it performs perfectly (holds around 9h life on single cycle/full charge).

I ran my diagnostics on ~70% while charging and did that 3 times, every time disconnecting the power adapter and reconnecting it again as advised at the end of each test.
I only did my test for sake of curiosity (**** me ) and I must say that the whole Mac performs perfectly form the day one.

Hope that helps somehow.
