HP Recommended
Product: HP Pavilion x360 - m3-u101dx

I recently tried to replace my laptop's battery.  After reassembling the laptop it would not boot up and is giving the error code on the keyboard of three long blinks and two quick blinks.

 

However, if I removed both ribbon cables for the keyboard and the touch pad or remove the ribbon cable for the touch pad the laptop boots up normally.  So with no ribbon cables or just the keyboard it works (using it now).

 

I have tried resetting the bios with a USB stick, but with the touch pad ribbon cable attached it won't even get to that point.

 

Any thoughts?  Thanks in advance!
