Hey guys,
I have a Mac Pro A1297 that isn't turning on. The charger has a green light on it when it's plugged in, but it is very faint. I have to turn off the lights in the room to see the green glow. Not sure if that's normal or if the charger is going out? I used a multi meter on the charger and it seems to be getting some voltage.
From there, I went and did the key inputs "Shift+Option+Command and Power" for 4 seconds+ and then released and tried to power on. No luck. I opened up the Mac and unplugged the battery and some other cables around it, just in case (I believe one was the hard drive) and let it sit. Still nothing.
There is no lights that come on when I try and power the mac on. I have ordered another charger. I'm wondering if it isn't getting the sufficient voltage to the laptop. If the charger is not the fix then I am unsure on my next step would to be. A battery? Can Mac Pro's run without a battery? I did unplug the battery and plug the charger in and try to bypass the battery, but still nothing.
Thank you for any help!
