The March 2015 update of Apple's 13" MacBook Air features fifth generation Intel Core i5 and i7 processors, resulting in slightly increased performance and battery life.

New battery. MacBook turns off when charger is unplugged

I followed the FixIt guide for replacing a battery on a MacBook Air Early 2015. My older battery was having trouble keeping the charge. I let it charge to 100%, then let it continue charging for two more hours. However, after setting the energy preferences so that he Mac would not turn off in order to deplete the battery, when I unplugged the power adaptor my mac turned off. I tried everything to fix this problem (SMC reset, PRAM reset, re-installing the new battery etc.). Why is this happening?

Here are some screenshots from CoconutBattery:

EDIT 1:

After checking the battery under “About this Mac” I get the following information:

CoconutBattery is saying that my battery is charging, by my Mac itself is saying otherwise. Why is this?

EDIT 2:

I reinstalled the old battery, but now this battery is not charging either. When I disconnect the power adaptor, the macbook continues to turn off. What is going on?

EDIT 3:

I performed a SMC Reset on the older battery ( removing the battery, holding the power button for 10 seconds, re-installing the old battery, pressing the power button) and now it seems that this battery is charging. However, I did this multiple times with the newer battery and it does not charge. Thoughts?

What color is the MagSafe LED? Amber or Green

It is green, and on the top right corner the battery icon says 100% charged

Lets check the MagSafe charger as you might have a bad cord (damaged) or the MagSafe connector is not making contact.

Pretty much a bad battery, if the old battery doesn't do this it confirms it.

@benjamen50 - I'm not sure thats the case here. I would reset the SMC to see if that altered things.
