So, as you can see in this video, my laptop basically gave up on me today.
It was just sitting there on my desk when it suddenly shut off. I figured, okay, the battery probably just died, so I plugged in the charger and hit the power button... and then it started making this weird clicking sound.
And it just kept clicking until macOS finally managed to boot up. I thought, alright, maybe it's fine now, but every single time I close the lid, it starts clicking again as soon as I open it back up. If I try to reset it before the OS loads, the same thing happens, and if I shut it down completely, it does the same thing.
What should I do? Does anyone know what might be going on? 🤷
Should I just take it to a repair shop? And if I do, how long does a fix like this usually take? I really need this laptop for work. 🤷
