Need one above the battery holder with the ribbon cable out of the way.
How many times does the diagnostic LED blinks, pauses, and repeats the same number of flashes each time?
The top right (-) battery contact looks missing for sure. Most times because it corrosion caused it to be brittle and makes it easy to break off when changing batteries.
I only trust what my eyes can see.
Trust not what a seller tells you, especially when something is not working.
Quoted from HydrogenHuman:I agree on that. Putting in NVram is likely a good option rather than trying to replace or re-do the battery pack.
NVRAM is the best idea!!
