Magsafe light stays green , not charging.

Hi,

My MacBook Pro battery is not charging when I connect the MagSafe charger, the LED is slightly green and it does not charge my battery. I have reset the SMC and there is no change.

My battery died so I bought a new battery it has 70% charged so my system booted up so I can reset SMC, but when I connect it to MagSafe the light on it goes to green and not charging. The battery icon on top when I click say not charging.

I disconnected the battery, and then plugged in to MagSafe adapter alone the LED on it still stayed green and in this situation. I can't even turn on my system, it turns on for few second then turn off.

I tried second MagSafe power adapter, nothing changed.

Does any one know of the solution?

The charging logic on the logic board has a problem. You'll need to find someone who can fix it or replace the logic board.

Can you explain more fully... What did you replace?

Thats the DC In-Board and does not effect the charging logic.

The logic is on the main board. Review this vid: How cheap eBay batteries DESTROY Macbook logic boards!
