Laptop is not starting. Power led just blinks

[Ram Tarun]

I bought a lenovo flex 2 laptop 2 years back. Recently it's not starting up. The power led and the keyboard backlight just blinks continuously but laptop doesn't start.
I have even tried removing the battery and drain the power by pressing the power button for 30 seconds but it didn't work. I found that Everytime the led blinks, the fan also starts and stops. Sometimes it used to start after blinking for some time and there was no issue even if it goes to sleep mode then, but off late, it's not even starting. Any help would be appreciated

Hi,

Please do try these troubleshooting steps that may help that I suggested to others.
- First is to try your laptop if it will boot up without it's battery.
- Remove the battery off the laptop then connect just the AC adapter and see if it will boot up and will stay on.
- If the laptop will stay on with just the charger connected that means it's the battery that is faulty.
- But if the same problem will persist without the battery that could mean that the AC adapter is faulty.
- Try a different AC adapter that has the same voltage or the same charger that you have and see if that will work.
- If a different AC adapter will still not work I would suggest opening the laptop and reseat the RAM's.
- Remove them all for couple of seconds then put them back in making sure everything is seated properly.
- If all these will not work that means the problem lies in the motherboard itself.
