I have a macbook air from early 2014. However my charging light is not on. The battery is fine. I can turn the computer on and off and use it for a few minutes.

1. Could motherboard be an issue?

2. What other things could be an issue?

3. The links to parts and how much they cost?

Bad Cable?
Possibly test using someone else's Apple cable.

Reset SMC. https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201295

Is it also not charging, or is it just the light that won't come on?
It is not charging. The light also not coming on. My MacBook Air is 11 inches bought in early 2014. I think I need to get the DC in Jack. Can someone please provide me the part number and the website where I can buy it from? I'm having trouble finding the part and the website.
