My MacBook not powering on while charger shows green light

I have a MacBook Pro retina display from 2015.

It was working till last week when it suddenly went blank. I tried to reboot but nothing happened. I tried rebooting after couple of days, it did power on once and allowed me to login but went black again

Since then I have not been able to login, The charger went from amber to green over certain time, that to me indicates the battery is still good.

Give the age of the system I’m suspecting you battery has failed. While the MagSafe connector is showing a Green LED as well as showing the discharge state it can lie!

Give this a try, follow the first 6 Steps in this guide MacBook Pro 13" Retina Display Mid 2014 Battery Replacement

Then with nothing connected, press and hold the power button a good 15secs to fully discharge the logic board. Now plug in the MagSafe charger the system should spontaneously startup, let it fully boot up and do a proper shutdown.

Reconnect the battery and restart again with the charger plugged in. Now quickly download CoconutBattery and take a snapshot of the apps main window with the battery tab opened and post it here for us to see.
