I recently bought a used Macbook not detecting its ssd. Even though the cable between the logic board and ssd looked perfectly good, I bought a replacement cable and installed it. Fixed the problem (turns out this is not an infrequent issue). Everything is so miniaturized and easily damaged...

What I concluded:If you've had your Macbook open and even if everything looks good, it's still possible you have a bad cable or connection. Careful inspection, cleaning, re-seating and swapping out of a cable (if cheap and easy to do ) might be worth the gamble.

One additional thought: Your Macbook's failure to successfully start up is probably not a coincidence. There may be firmware/software issues behind your latest symptoms. Lots to explore there. Good luck!
