I'm having problems with the power i both a new battery and the power cable 85w. Ok some time i have to shake the magnetic plug so that the light come on. When it does it on green and i have the new battery, i left the computer on over night and it have good to sleep because for some reason it's start using the battery power. Some time don't charge the battery. Any ideas what my be the problem? I don't have any warranty left. :Shouting:

Is the new MagSafe power adapter a genuine Apple part or is it a substitute adaptor? Some substitute adaptors which can be purchased for less are not suitable and won't work right. Since you also replaced the battery, that must be OK.

Your input DC power board could be at fault but the only way to find out is to either swap it out or have someone trouble shoot it for you. Since your machine is not under warranty, that might be expensive.

Regards.
