2008 Aluminum Macbook Not Turning On Macbook Unibody Model A1278

Chosen Solution

Hi, I have a 2008 Unibody Macbook that I found the other day in a drawer and I tried to turn it on but there is no signs of life. The magsafe charger doesn’t have any light on it and the fans doesn’t spin, and the battery indicator has no lights. Although the laptop gets hot around the logic board. Could it be a dead logic board, if not then how do I resurrect it?

Here’s the needed parts: MacBook Unibody (A1278) BatteryApple 60W MagSafe Power Adapter (for MacBook and 13-inch MacBook Pro) See if that gets you going first, if not we’ll need to dig deeper.
