When there are issues that could be hardware related, either wear or damage,
the idea to see about having the unit inspected or perhaps given diagnostic test
by an Apple Authorized service provider, may help discover causes or remedies.
Have the connectors on the MagSafe adapter & computer been checked to see
of they're making contact? Have you carefully inspected & cleaned them?

To my knowledge they are making contact, and I have cleaned them. I recently bought the magsafe as my original had been frayed, and this is the first issue I've had with it in around 4 months.
