IM NEW HERE AND

I assume it was a new battery that you put in. It is possible that its a bad battery too

yes it was a brand new battery from acer for the aspire 3002
well i got it nrrowed down to 2 things,a/c cord or the power inlet on the other board.

i jiggle the wire around and it will stay charging and start charge the battery.fyi its at 9%

i tested the cord and it showed 19 volts but when i moved the wires volts would drop like a rock i move them again and it will pick back up.

sounds like the dc pin on your mainboard is loose.
