If it does the same when you put the old battery back in, it's the charger you should have replaced. Was the new battery a "proper" Dell replacement or a possibly self-combusting cheap Chinese clone?

No,it's a brand new genuine dell battery,the charger works with the old battery.

Sounds like you have a good case for returning it to the seller.
