First question:  Does the system properly recognize the AC adapter?  F2 at powerup to check.

Second question:  Are the replacements Dell OEM batteries, or third party ones?

I think yes the AC adapter is recognize d, and yes the battery is Dell, now the battery stopped work although the icon shows that "plugged in,charging" .

If all three batteries came from Dell and don't work, you almost certainly have a bad charging circuit on the mainboard.

If they came from a third-party supplier, you'll want to verify that the batteries are in fact new -- and not old stock or used -- before condemning the mainboard as the problem.

Yes, but when that happens, the system fails to see the adapter - it reports unknown.  That's not the case here.

You should know that there are cases where the adapter is to be replaced so that the battery is properly charged. I faced this problem recently.
