mmm… This battery is not new (but on the newish side) The amount of cycles tells me you’ve had this battery for a while. Was it working at the start and just now starting to acting up?
Where did you get the battery?
Let’s run the on board diagnostics to double check things. Restart your system and press the D key to enter into diagnostics did you get any errors
Reference: Mac startup key combinations
I think you have a deeper issue here. As your cycle count seems high for only using it for 4 months or so.
Do you tend to run the system on battery Vs leaving it plugged in? So you let the battery run down then charge.
Let’s also look at the MagSafe port is it clean and the pins the same gold color?
I hope your’s doesn’t look like this ;-}
I often see people who bought knockoff chargers damage their systems either at the MagSafe port or internally the charging logic gets damaged. Is thins the original charger or did you replace it? Did you get a REAL Apple unit directly from Apple of something else?
Oh Boy! The MagSafe cable’s magnets are stuck to your systems MagSafe connector! These magnets look like a knockoff’s charger not the original Apple design which uses a single magnet Vs four units you clearly have here:
If you can’t get them out you’ll need to replace the MagSafe DC-In board MacBook Pro 13" Unibody Mid 2012 MagSafe DC-In Board Replacement iFixit is out of stock presently MacBook Pro Unibody 13" and 15" MagSafe DC-In Board, even still take a look at the part to see part rotate it around so you see a side profile, note the connectors pin part is raised above the base and the base has a grey plastic plate.
You will need a new charger! Make sure you get a REAL Apple charger Apple 60W MagSafe Power Adapter (for MacBook and 13-inch MacBook Pro)
Knockoff’s can hurt your system! Don’t buy them.
