How can my MacBook detect when the battery is removed or disconnected?
I have the old 2011 Macbook pro with a broken battery. I disconnected the battery cable from the logic board and used it just like that for about more than a year or two now. Today, I tried removing the battery itself to try and make the laptop lighter, followed some instructions online how to make it run but the fans throttled and it was unable to start itself. So I had to put the battery back with the battery cable still disconnected.
So here is my question, why is it throttling when I remove the battery from the laptop but not when I just disconnect the battery cable from the logic board?
Ist dies eine gute Frage?
