won't boot from new battery, logic board AND charge cable

this is a 2008 black MacBook. at first it was just a screen panel replacement and HDD to SSD upgrade. the battery was dead so I had only booted it plugged in. ordered new battery. it shows up as installed and shows % and everything but wouldn't charge and as soon as i unplug, it dies. no light on magsafe. I tried 2 different magsafe and 2 different 1185 batteries. both list as installed, not charging but one had 30% and the other 57%. found a replacement logic board and installed it. same. new battery connector cable. SAME THING. i don't know what's left to replace. also tried 2 different magsafe charge ports. it's dead unless plugged in. even when on, no magsafe light, but I have tried 2 of everything. is there a sensor or something I am missing?

Are you using known genuine Apple chargers that come from Best Buy or an Apple store? A lot of the ones you find on eBay are high grade copies and almost none of them charge the notebook right (if they do, they always seem to trash the motherboard given the chance to do so. I found 3 with one key indicator that makes it stupidly easy to find them before you learn by losing the computer). If this is your weak link, suck it up and buy one from Best buy or Apple. If the system is trashed beyond repair due to these things (and possibly age related issues), look at it as an insurance policy that lets you put the fake one in the box so you will never have to risk the machine you really want. If you insist on using eBay for a used charger, look for a family identifier that says 0x00ba or something similar - this is a bad identifier that confirms it’s a clone charger every time.

The reason I am saying to check is these are old enough people use the board killer copies and fry boards, so look into that possibility… I picked up one of these machines for slightly more then scrap value and found out it was a bum that had it’s fate sealed long before I got it. The reason these things sell is the charger is much more then the residual value of a 2006-8/9 MacBook (pre-Unibody) so people get sticker shock and kill the motherboards to save a few bucks. I had to write the machine off as a portable and buy a new system with how extensive the signs were on mine. That was my 2nd to final strike against the copies and in some cases, used adapters. The final one was finding a nice looking 2011 for a good price it wasn’t worth risking my replacement.

It doesn’t even need to be shrinkwrap new, especially if it comes from Best Buy. The open box specials aren’t much cheaper (probably no more then $8-10 less), but this can be a descent way to get over the cost differential of the knockoffs and used ones that can be hard to weed out without risking the entire machine. Just don’t trust anything that isn’t open from any other store to be sure and assume ALL new adapters without a box are fake.

Update

I am going to show you how good some of them are and why I’m being very specific about the family identifier and where you purchased them. This is a near 1:1 copy which failed the cord test, has darker printing (can’t tell without seeing an Apple one it’s so close) and the family identifier:

The serial numbers on copies are mass produced (and are never real unless ripped from a real one) so there’s a million of this on the market with how many copies like this exist. It’s probably fake AND mass produced to a point I’m not first to show this serial number. The blurring is a stock number - not something I need to, but chose to.

both original chargers

Some of them are disturbingly good - to the point the red flag I use is the actual cord feel before checking the identifier - the Apple one feels different from every knockoff I've handled. Those photos are from a fake I caught with the family identifier.

Unless you know what to look for, you may never know it's not genuine with how good some of them are.

they are original and have been used with other MacBooks I have here
