Power problems MacBook Pro Mid 2012?

Hello. I have a Macbook Pro 13" (mid 2012) 2.9 GHz i7, 8Gb RAM, 128 SSD.

The problem is that when it's running on full battery it shuts down after 5 minutes or so... If I plug the charger, it shuts down too.

When the charger is plugged in I noticed: a dim green light (with a slight tick at the DC-in) or a bright blinking green light with the same tick, or a amber light (charging); blinking between amber and green light. With all these different lights the computer acts the same. Sometimes it starts up and boots but I can't use it for more than 5 minutes, sometimes 10, sometimes doesn't start at all.

Sometimes the battery indicator lights show: all 6 green lights from the button to the edge of the computer for 4-5 seconds then fade, when charging displays 5 lights and 1 blinking , sometimes (when battery full) displays 1 or 2 leds.

The first time when this happened was when my Mac wasn't plugged in for 1 week. When I plugged in, showed no lights at all for 15 minutes, then amber and then green and was ok. After that (about 2-3 weeks) it was plugged in (green light) battery showed 97% and out of the blue it shuts down and the green light started blinking. I tried the SMC and nothing. I removed the connection of the battery on the motherboard for 1-2 seconds and then when I plugged in it showed green light and started automaticaly without me presing the power button... then shuts down and same problem.

I didn't try PRAM reset because I can't use the Mac for more then 1 minute now. (10 was at the beggining and 5 was after, tops) . Also, I haven't try to run the AHD because of that.

Please don't tell me to go to Apple because the Mac was bought secondhand (I can't afford a new one) I don't have the bill or the Apple care document (expired anyway), and because of that I guess they will not repair it even if i pay all the costs.

The OS is El Capitan 10.11.4 Thank you very very much and sorry for my english, it's not the first language (I'm from Romania)!

Sorry, I don't. My home is in the USA.

I have traveled around Europe and did stop in Bucharest which is a beautiful city.

Oh. I'm sorry.I thought you were a romanian. Dan is a very common romanian name. And you said hi to me in romanian. Anyway. I understand now.

Buna is one of the few Romanian words I know ;-}

Nici scuze necesare (from Google's translation service)

I suspect your battery is in trouble here. Once you discharge it all the way down you can encounter issues.

What happens when you disconnect the battery and just use the MagSafe power adapter does that work any better?

I didn't try that. The problem escaladed progressively. At first i could use the computer for 5 minutes, then 1 minute, now 0 doesn't start at all and the light is dim green blinking with a slide tick. This happened after i took down the connection from battery for 10 seconds, then the laptop would not start after i plugged in the charger.
