So I got this macbook from a friend said it was stuck in recovery mode well I brought it home and stuck a good hd in and booted it up seem like everything was fine. I noticed the sleep light did'nt come on but still made noize from the dvd drive and chime. I did a smc reset popped the battery back in and connected the power cable, and guess what the power adapter was dead it is a fairly new one I use all the time on a good macbook. So I waited a bit disconnected the battery and after a few tries on the magsafe it went green. I powerd up (no white light on ) and into the os fine. Is the sleep light broke ? how does this effect the mac as whole if it is simply out, maybe there is a serious power issue with it?. By the way I stuck that questionable battery in my good macbook and caused the same issue (which is going in the trash). My good macbook is working fine with the original battery by the way. The original charger with the power issued macbook was frayed a bit . Well I'm trying to find out with the sleep light not working what kind of issues can it cause, I can put the lid down and it will sleep but when I lift it up sometimes I have to press the spacebar to wake it up. Any ideas on this stuff?
