    I think that the issue is with the internal connector which might got the loose connection and so it is better to take it to the Apple shop who are expertise of the macbook and fix the issue related to the same. As apple is having the solution of the same as they will unlock the same and fix the issue by making the faulty connection corrected.

    The problem is seen in the MacBook pro when the battery is creating the problem in the system. It can be possible that the battery that you are using with your MacBook Pro is having the malfunction. So check for the battery first and if found faulty then replace it with the new one which might resolve your issue related to the same.
