powercord will not charge Macbook Pro Retina 15 inch 2013

Light does not go orange or green on the connector, tried multiple outlets, the travel connector. Is it the cord or the computer?

MacBook Pro, OS X Yosemite (10.10.4)

If there is not light on from the power adapter, it looks like the power adapter may be faulty.

There is a chance your Mac may just need an SMC reset. With it switched off and the power adapter connected press shift + ctrl + alt (option) +power button and release them all at the same time. If this wrks, the light on your MagSafe should either come back on or change colour.
