MacBook will not charge.

I have tried a new charger, but it’s the same. Sometimes I get a solid Orange light, sometimes green. It stays on 0 percent, and doesn’t move.

When I look at the battery statistics it says that the capacity is 5246 and 627 cycles.

Any ideas?

Update (12/19/2018)

The light is now green but still no charge. Its solid green.

UPDATE (07/19)

Sorry to resurect this but I’ve only just got around to a new I/O Board attempt.

Was strange as before it was always on 0 - 1 percent and not charging, replaced the I/O board and now its on 20 odd percent, still not charging, and battery is being used but going down.

Any other ideas as I’ve tried a new I/O Board and 2 new batteries now.

Thanks!

Did you have a liquid spill at some point? I'm thinking the charging logic within the logic board is damaged.
