I’ve read other answers but no luck so far. Replaced the battery, everything went smoothly. Now charging light stays orange. No response from the computer. When I do SMC reset, light goes green briefly when I let go of keys but then goes back to orange. Anything else I can try or did I just kill a perfectly functioning laptop?
Is dit een goede vraag?

take off the battery and all peripherals then hold the power button for ten secs. If that doesn’t work then I would recommend you maybe remove the battery and plug in the charger and see if that powered up the Computer you may have a faulty battery.
Was dit antwoord nuttig?
Do you mean disconnect the battery and have the computer plugged into a power outlet when I try to hold the power button down?
@Brian Gaberman Yes remove the battery and see if that helps.
Thanks, I’ll try that this evening
I got it working. I can’t believe it, but I had reconnected the I/O board cable backwards. I installed it correctly and everything seems to be working fine. Thanks so much for your help. @stevejob20084

Lets back up why did you replace the battery in the first place was the system working and telling you you needed a new one?
door Dan
Yes, it was indicating I should replace the battery soon, so I figured I would go ahead and do it.
