@KingWi11 what if you can't take out your battery?

[bobbthompson]

Thank you! It got the light on the charger to turn on. Had to reset PRAM / NVRAM (power down: option + command + P + R {hold for 5 sec and release}) and SMC (power down: shift + control + option + command + power button {hold for 5 sec and release}) after to get the battery to charge, but the resets didn't work before this fix. Thanks!

May I write down the instructions: 1) Power down your mac. 2) Take out the battery. 3) Unplug magsafe from the mac. 4) Hold down the power button for 5 seconds. 5) Plug the magsafe to the mac. 6) Wait for the indicator to go green. 7) Put the battery back. 8) Turn on the mac. Is this correct so far?
