Bought this as a refurb thru Apple. My daughter thought her charger was no good about 6 months after we bought it, no light on MagSafe, was not charging. Tried a friends charger still nothing. Went to Genius Bar, hers worked at the store of course. A few months later she spilled wine on her keyboard. I disassembled, thoroughly cleaned with rubbing alcohol, dried, reassemble, worked with no issues for 5 months. Last weekend no MagSafe light/battery not charging issue reappeared. Replaced I/O board, still nothing, reset SMC, still nothing. Opened back up, disconnected battery, attached MagSafe, light turns green and computer runs. Turned off, plugged battery back in, no light/not charging (laptop does run but battery only has 8% left). Now what?
