Acer Aspire Laptop won't turn on or charge

[isabella.macdonald2002]

I tried to turn my Acer Aspire v 15 v3-572g-76em on today, and it isn't turning on nor does it show it's charging. I used it just last night, and it was charging just fine. I did just take it on a 3 hour car ride (vacation), and it was in my backpack the whole time and may have gotten jostled around in the car and the way up to the hotel room on the cart. I have it plugged in right now, and it doesn't seem to be doing anything at all. Any help would be appreciated, as I really need to use it during vacation for work. Thanks.

Try the following and see if it will turn on...

1. Unplug your charger cord.
2. Remove the battery.
3. Press and hold the "Power" button for 30 seconds.
4. Now plug back in the power/charger cord.
5. Now put the battery back in.

If this doesn't help, then test the power cord to see if it is good. Either try your cord in another device, or try another devices cord in your laptop. You may also want to try charging it when the device is off, rather than on. If it works then, the cord is probably the issue.

Should that not be the problem, then check the battery to see if it needs replacing.
