Q: Macbook Pro (2011) Battery status light codes?

I have a 2011 13 inch Macbook pro that no longer sees the battery. The machine wont power on unless it has the power plug present. Looking at the system profiler, the system doesn't list any battery present. I have tried resetting the PRAM and the SMC without any luck.

 

One clue to what is happening is the battery status lights on the side. Out of the 8 lights on the side, counting from the button side, the 6th light stays on. No other lights fade in or out or flash, just the single light is on. I have found documentation on different lights flashing or rotating, but noting on just the single light staying on.

 

Has anyone come across this kind of error before, or any suggestion on where to go to from here?
