If that doesn't work:
Try a hard reset. Disconnect the battery (open the bottom and pull the connector off. Use your fingernails.) and power adapter. Press the power button for 1 minute. Let the computer sit for 5 minutes, Reconnect and try to start up.
No? - Go through the same procedure and try to start without the battery connected.
The addendum to this would be to try a known good battery.
This would be for a "no start" scenario but basically it's the SMC reset w/ a battery you can remove.

Try without the battery connected? What does the battery LED bar say?
60 Watt OEM power adapter? Try without it connected.
Seems like a 1 wire circuit problem.
