You need to do a diagnostic on the battery and look at the advanced results as it will dig into the health of each cell, etc. It is a bit young to have the battery go out but no telling what happened to it in the hands of the first owner and if it is even the original battery. Extended test will tell us that.

The battery is now fully dead and can not check the battery. Don't know if its the battery, charger or motherboard now.

If the charger still powers the laptop its not the charger. If the laptop still boots its probably not the motherboard. Can you turn on the laptop and boot to Windows?

Then the problem is bigger than the battery. Could be the AC adapter.
