[QUOTE="lclev, post: 1624959, member: 307555"] What version of OS X are you running? I had a battery charging issue on a 2009 Macbook that I had loaded Yosemite on. I had 10.10.0 on it. All looked good then the next day the battery icon had an "x" on it and would not charge. I had to have it plugged into it's charger but it would show a green light. I downloaded and installed the Yosemite update 10.10.1 and reseated the battery, reset the SMC and all was good. Of course if you are not running Yosemite this is a mute point. The other option is a bad MagSafe board problem or logic board. You can get a MagSafe DC-in board from ifixit.com. If it is a logic board might be time for a new laptop.
