Hi Friends, I’m facing a strange issue (after using the laptop for more than 10 hours continuously) similar to this thread. Can anyone identify this component on logic board of MacBook Pro “Core i7” 2.0 15" Early 2011 I’m unable to power on the system, battery is not getting charged but when I hold the power button and plug the MagSafe it works. But still battery not getting charged (tested with a new battery also). I scanned the Motherboard closely and identified a component which seems to be burnt out. Can someone help me to identify this component and whether is this related the to the above issue i’m facing? And how easy to replace this component?

You stated you tried a new battery. Do you have access to another MacBook Pro which uses the same battery? If you do lets leverage it to charge and test your systems battery. The MagSafe cord LED should be Amber while its charging and turn to Green when charged. You may need to let the system plugged in for a good 8 hours to get fully charged. Use the onboard battery checker to see how it goes.
How many of the tiny LED’s are lit? Are they blinking or steady? If you don’t have a second system what is your systems MagSafe and battery checker tell you?
