Hi Anthony, I am afraid it may be death by Caffeine. If it wont charge its likely the charger components and/or the battery are kaput.

Perhaps trying an alternate power source to bypass the battery? Sometimes I find stripping to the bones and soaking all parts including the board in washing up liquid ( liquid soap) and hot water helps. Of course rinse and drying thoroughly after is a must.
