Hi, So I followed the IFIXIT guide to the T. I will be reassembling it gain after work. It is booting directly to a white screen with fans on full blast, Now granted I hadn’t received my new MagSafe power adapter yet, stupid amazon only delivering in bits and so I just went through and canceled the torx here, but I’ll start being more loyal, since it was a free guide. And of course working for Apple no body seems to have an answer there, it can’t be video card because then wouldn’t see nothing. I’ll probably order a battery too just in case because the AC light still isn’t coming on. It was working however fantastically last week, so far due to all the added shipping costs I’ve sent 65 dollars. Any suggestions? I’m going reset everything again. The most logical answer is a hardware failure but how can I tell if I can’t get into diagnostics? Any help would be greatly appreciated. And, yes I was running it without a battery! I’ve reset NVRAM during the white screen which makes no sense Then the System Management Controller (SMC) who knows, but I hold the power button for 20 seconds it will turn on. But still to a white screen.
Could be the hard drive isn’t in correctly? Might be worth pulling it out, blowing out any dust around the connectors with a can of air and putting it back in again. Or it could be a failed HDD, do you have another you can put in to test?
