[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 1662849, member: 24098"] Is that a MacBook Pro with Retina display, or the standard model? If the former, nothing to do but to take it to an Apple Store or an authorized Apple Service Provider and get a quote. Retina models are, in essence, disposable machines and can't readily be serviced. If it's a standard model, my next move would be to open the bottom panel, remove the battery and check the connector for evidence of moisture or corrosion. Do note that you will need a tri-wing bit to do this and they are not readily available. If you have a specialized computer shop in the area, they may be able to point you in the right direction.
