Hi. My MacBook A1342 won't power on or charge:\. The charger light isn't on I tried it with another charger same thing. Could this be a MagSafe problem? Or the logic board fault? Thanks:D

Since you tried another MagSafe adapter charger, it could be a defective power on switch or a bad DC input board. There is really no way to test either without disassembling your MacBook. I'm assuming your MacBook is no longer in warranty. If you feel up to it, go to iFixit: The free repair manual with your model number on hand and look up the instructions for removing the top case and for changing out the DC input board.
