Chosen Solution
I recently inherited a MacBook Pro from a family member. Before gifting it to me the hard drive and battery were replaced. The battery has worked fine for about 50 cycles Now if the computer is unplugged it immediately dies. When the charger is plugged in it only glows green (never amber). The battery reads 100% charge but is listed as “Replace Now” under the condition. No liquid spills Here is what I have tried: I inspected the battery and its attachment and everything visually looked ok. I unplugged the battery and plugged it back inI reset the PRAMI reset the SMC Here is what my battery data states: Charge remaining (mAh): 6437Fully Charged: YesCharging: NoFull Charge Capacity (mAh): 6437 Health Information: Cycle Count: 51Condition: Replace NowBattery Installed: YesAmperage (mA): 0Voltage (mV): 6002 Let me know if you can help before I try a computer repair shop. Thank you!!
Is this a knock off battery or OEM? Do you have access to an original battery you can compare with?
