My laptop will light up like it is charging when I have the battery in, it will also light up as if it is going to power on but shuts down after a few seconds. I replaced the power button as a first solution, the DC power jack seems to be working fine. I did the process of elimination taking the ram out, hard drive out, wifi card out and tried to power up it still powers on for a few seconds and then shuts off.
 
Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

When you speak of battery, are you dealing with a laptop? If so, this thread is in the wrong section. Also, if it indeed is a laptop, include the make and model of the unit and an SKU. If this is a Dell or HP laptop, maybe see if swapping the rams or using just one stick of ram gets the platform up and running.

Apologies for putting it in the wrong forum I didnt see any specific ones but yes it is a laptop Acer Aspire V3-572g I did swap the rams to test each one swapped each one in each slot and still the same thing powers on for abour 3 seconds and then the power light just shuts off.
