i had a simmilar scenario on a mac pro, the issue was the power supply. So it may just be the akku

i unplug the power from the wall and run on only internal battery and it does the same. Is there a way i can replace power supply or convertor in this macbook pro?

by

you can replace the akku:

If you can grab/borrow a multimeter you could measure the volts from th Akku when fully charged(ca. 11 Volts). To be 100% sure, and then get a new one.
