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?

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

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.
