I just replaced my macbook battery (same model number as the old one). I placed the new one in, plugged in AC and the indicater light on the power cord was green. Never went orange. I left it alone for several hours anyway. I turned it on to see if it was actually charging and it wasn't. No green lights on the battery.

The system profiler for the battery currently reads:

Device name: ASMB013

Full charge capacity (mAh): 0

Is there any reason it won't charge?
Ideas?
