If the lower case is not securely screwed or snapped into place, the system will disconnect power from the battery. The system will still receive power from the AC adapter. But the battery will not charge or discharge if the lower case is not screwed or snapped into place.
There is a small button below the RAM slot that detects when the lower case is removed. Please note the second button closest to the board edge is the battery Reset button.

I recently replaced the RAM in my Aspire R3-131T and couldn't get the laptop to run off battery power after opening up the case. It turned out to be that this button wasn't pressed hard enough when my case is screwed together. I added a bit of material to put more pressure on the switch and it's working better now.
Many thanks!!!
Glad that the issue is resolved. I appreciate all your efforts in fixing the problem.
