Title:

MackBook air Randomly Shuts Down

Text:

Hi

I have a 2015 MacBook Air which keeps randomly shutting down. Sometimes it will go for hours and if I close the lid it will open days later still going. On other occasions it will shut down after only a few minutes to an hour.

There is no warning it will just be a black screen and it has shut down. Pressing the start button it starts up again. Occasionally pressing the start button immediately after a shutdown it will not start and requires a few presses before it will start again.

The battery was replaced about 2Years ago with an iFixet one and the battery count shows 121.

I have tried various online differnt key press type suggestions all to no avail.

Could the battery be the cause and if so what suggestions would you make.

Could the SSD cause this to happen?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Allan
