Why is the laptop suddenly not charging after keyboard replament?
I have recently replaced the keyboard on family member’s MacBook Air. This is not the first time I’ve done this, but this is the first time the computer suddenly stopped charging. I already tried two different chargers and made sure everything was plugged in tightly. Nothing seems to be obviously broken and after some tinkering I was able to get it to turn on, but the fan was at 100% speed and the computer only worked with the charger plugged in. Could this be an issue with the battery? This has never happened before nor did any situation similar to this happen. What should it do?
Update: After unplugging the battery the mac starts up as usual.

After more looking around, I found that the connection between the I/O board and main board was damaged. I am going to order a new cable and see what happens.
