MacBook Pro battery not charging, even after resetting SMC many times
So there was a power outage at home due to maintenance that I was not aware of and for the first time in my life, I went to sleep, the night before the outage, without plugging in my MacBook.
I woke up to no electricity for about 5 hours and during the time I tried turning it on as usual. I had no clue what the battery percentage was at night before I slept but I was expecting some kind of response but didn’t even see a battery dead indicator show up. Still, without power, I Google’ed on my phone about what to do if this happens.
And quite stupid of me that I followed the first result, without any research, and reset my SMC (I had no clue what SMC was until I had already done it) which didn’t help at the time.
Fast forward to when the electricity was restored, I plugged in my laptop for around 2 hours and came back to 0%, which was creepy. I clicked on the battery icon and it showed a “Replace Battery” icon and that every app that was used recently “Using Significant Energy”, even Spotlight and System Preferences (I used the former to search the latter).
Also, the laptop is lagging a lot, how these Macs usually do when they’re less than 5% and not connected to power. I still have firm belief that it’s nothing to do with a circuit or logic board because I was using the laptop just last night and it was working perfectly.
This is what coconutBattery is showing up for me.
