MacBook Air won't detect the battery

crwdns2934249:0crwdne2934249:0:

Hi everyone,

I have been facing a battery issue for few days now and browsing on various forums, I have not found any trick that would solve it.

***My Macbook Air (13-inch, Early 2015) does not detect its battery***. When the Power Adapter is plugged on the computer, it works just fine. The Magsafe turns Green for 2 seconds, then Red.  I can carry on with this set up for hours without any problem. The battery just won’t charge. So I have to rely on steady power supply, and I can’t take my laptop anywhere.

***As soon as I disconnect the AC charger, the computer goes to sleep or shut down***. Which is not surprising since the Mac does not detect any battery, so without power the Mac shuts down.

***I have tried resetting the SMC and the PRAM many times, without any success***. I have downloaded CoconutBattery just to further investigate and it gives me the same results as the system report : there is no battery detected.

One thing worth mentioning I believe is the fact that ***I changed the battery 2 months ago. I purchased the battery on iFixit***… It worked fine for over a month and then the problem started to appear. I have changed it myself, carefully following iFixit detailed procedure. I have also tried disconnecting the battery and  reconnecting it, without success as well. I have read that changing the battery could be a solution, but mine is new so I don’t think the issue is there.

***What would be my options here ?***

Thank you for your kind help, any detailed answer would be much appreciated.

Best regards,

Damien
