Hey guys i really need help..

I was charging my Macbook Pro (Model: A1398) 15 inch. Then i go to school and i need to charge my macbook at the end of the day and now it won't charge :/ So my question is what the hell happened to it?

I plugin my MagSafe 2 and nothing happens at all.... I mean nothing absolutely nothing. No light on the MagSafe. They battery works still as i have around 10% charge on it left. I've attached a picture of my battery information and the condition is normal.

So i did some research and found out that if the DC MagSafe board is failing you should get a dim light on the charger but i don't. There is absolutely no light on it. I know the charger works as i tried it on a different macbook. I have tried to reset the SMC and it didn't help :(

Can you guys help me out? Yes i tried cleaning the magsafe for debris, didn't help. How can i further diagnose this problem? And i want to say that this isn't the first time i've had this problem. This is my second time but the first time it fixed itself as i wiggled it around and cleaned it up a bit. But now nothing. nothing helps. Please i really need help.

You need to try another charger on your Mac to conclusively prove. It could still be the magsafe board even with no light.

Yeah i've tried a different charger on my mac and that didn't help. Can i swap the MagSagfe Board on my macbook? I mean do i need to buy a new logic board or can i swap the MagSafe board itself?
Thanks for the help dude.
