Hi @NuUserLT,
Welcome to the HP Support Community!
Thanks for reaching out!
We're thrilled to have the opportunity to assist you and provide a solution.
I Understand that your concern, don’t worry I will help you with this .
- Any signs of funcitonality ?
- Do any LEDs turn on (charging light, Caps Lock, keyboard backlight)?
- Do you hear a fan, click, or feel warmth when plugged in?
- What happens with the charger connected?
- Does the charging light turn on (white/orange)?
- Have you tried a different wall outlet or charger?
- Did anything happen before it stopped turning on?
These details help determine whether this is likely a power delivery issue, battery failure, or motherboard problem.
Troubleshooting steps to try :
1. Confirm the charger is actually working
Even if it looks fine:
- Try a different wall outlet
- Inspect the charger and cable for damage
- If possible, test with another known-working HP charger with the same wattage
No charging light at all often points to a charger or DC-in issue.
2. Drain residual power (extended power reset)
You mentioned a hard reset, but try this exact method if you haven’t already:
- Unplug the charger
- Hold the power button for 30–60 seconds
- Wait another 5 minutes
- Plug in the charger only (no battery if removable)
- Try to power on
3. Look closely for LED blink codes
Some HP laptops show very brief blink codes:
- Caps Lock / Num Lock blinking
- Charging LED flashing patterns
Even a quick blink can be a clue let me know if you see anything like that.
5. External display test
This is a long shot but quick to try:
- Plug in an external monitor or TV via HDMI
- Try powering on
- Watch for any signal or backlight change
I hope this helps.
