Macbook Pro A1425 not charging or switching on

My Macbook Pro A1425 was working fine but then all of a sudden it stopped working. The magsafe 2 charger isn't indicating any light and every time i either plug the magsafe 2 charger in it the fans start spinning and the battery indication comes on the screen but then it just shuts off. When i replaced the battery, the laptop came on and i was able to use it with and without the charger plugged (it would still not illuminate any light) but the charger would hold the charge on the new battery but not charge it. After a few days of me forgetting the plug the charger in the battery lost charge from went back to the exact same state. I also purchased a battery connector but i believe it was faulty so before i purchase another one, I would like to get any help possible as I have projects to do with my business on there.

PLEASE HELP!

It shoulda like the MagSafe port has gone bad. Try cleaning it with a dry q tip. It that doesn’t work, the port will have to be replaced.

Good morning, sorry for the confusing, when I ordered the new battery, the new battery had about 75% charge from the factory so the MacBook worked fine as any laptop would apart from the fact that when I plugged the MagSafe charger in, it would only hold the current charge of the MacBook but wouldn't increase the charge at all and when I would disconnect the charger, it would discharge. The MagSafe charger is meant to illuminate an orange light when charging but this doesn't show more does the green light. I have purchased 2 new chargers and still nothing. When the laptop completely ran out of charge, i plugged in the MagSafe charge in and its reverted back to its original condition of just showing the charge icon on the screen each time the MagSafe was connectedness even when pressing the home button when the MagSafe was connected which would also turn the fans on for a couple of seconds.
