Laptop wont turn on after charger wires spark.

[Francis John]

I have an Asus X501NA that won't turn on. Its charger's cord was cut due to my mistake. So I made an attempt on repairing it since it only has 2 wires with different colors. After reconnecting the wires my laptop was charging with no problem, but after placing the laptop on the desk the 2 wires touched each other that caused a spark and my laptop won't turn on. I did use a voltmeter to my charger and no current is flowing on it so I thought of buying a new charger. So after 2 months, I always forgot to buy it since I'm too busy with my studies, I finally bought a new charger. But the problem is my laptop still won't turn on. I checked on the charger and it has no problems. Any help?

PS. I did the "remove battery and press power on for 30 secs" thing but still unsuccessful.

Likely the motherboard is dead. If the charger port can be removed you can try replacing that and see if that helps.

How can I test if my motherboard is dead?

Need to have it looked at by a tech. If the system does not turn on you can't test anything.
