Diagnose problems with your Mac
Apple Diagnostics is a tool you can use to diagnose problems with your computer’s internal hardware, such as the logic board, memory, and wireless components. You may be able to start your Mac with Apple Diagnostics, even if it doesn’t start using macOS.

Apple Diagnostics doesn’t check external hardware components, such as USB, or non-Apple devices, such as PCI cards from other vendors. It doesn’t check for operating system (macOS) or software-related problems such as app or extension conflicts.
If a hardware problem isn’t detected, there may be a problem with the version of macOS you’re using and you may need to reinstall it. See Reinstall macOS.
