12. Replace the faulty battery

If all the steps above can’t solve your MacBook battery not charging issue, your battery is mostly like faulty.

If your MacBook battery is swollen, even if the battery notification window shows the battery is “Normal", you need to replace the battery. Below is a swollen battery in a 13" MacBook Pro. An inflated battery will pressure the case, touchpad, and logic board.

If you notice that your touchpad cracks or pops up, as shown in the photo below, you most likely have an expanded battery. You need to replace the battery immediately to prevent more damage.
