Im back now after a few busy days sorry for delay...........

Ive disconnected the screen cable from motherboard but it still the same!

I press the power button ....fans kick in for 2 secs then shuts down after 3 secs...5 secs?

Have i shorted something, incorrectly connecting the screen cable that would be linked to the problem im having?
 
But you know even with a multimeter, nothing is sure we will find the problem, and if we find the defective part, you will have to order the part and desolder to replace it. If you want to investigate the problem and maybe get it repair in a shop after, you will have more knowledge of the problem. It's up to you to decide how you want to proceed.
