Hi I've got a HP laptop 15s-fq4553na

 

The laptop will not turn on even when connected to the power. 

When connected yo the power the charging light stays red for about 10 seconds, turns off for about 3 seconds and continues in this pattern. 

I have also tried different charging leads.

 

Thanks
