When I plug my laptop in to charge I occasionally get a green light for a split second, then nothing. I took it into Apple and they said it was the IO board but it has water damage so they won’t repair it. I replaced the IO board and still get the same issue. It was working perfectly until the battery ran out. Any ideas?
IF the battery is bad it will not charge go to setting find battery they may tell you to replace battery. Age is not a factor if new.

Try taking it to Apple and see what they say now. If that doesn’t work, check the battery port and clean it. It often gets lint, etc.
