If the charge level of the battery had reached 100%, the OSX will stop charging the battery until the battery charge level falls below 95% but will power the MBP. Check the charge level.

Run an Apple Hardware test:

Note that an error free AHT is not conclusive.

Open System Information>Power and post this from your MBP:
Make certain that the charger is connected.
