Battery forces MacBook to shut down and not start up when plugged in

Hi there,

The original A1331 Battery for my 2009 A1342 MacBook is forcing my macbook to immediately shut down and not power up at all when plugged in. When i remove the battery while AC power is plugged in, the MacBook automatically starts without any issues. Is this normal for a battery that has sat empty for years or is the Battery Circutry damaged/shorted?

Thanks in advance and sorry for my bad english

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

@danj as mentioned, the macbook doesn't start at all with the battery plugged into the logic board. means there is no way i can look at any infos of the battery. I have also tried this battery with another A1342 MacBook, and that one had the same issue when this battery was installed.
