Spectr x2 detacheble 12-A001TU
I work on it the night before and it was working perfect. It had 50% of battery when I turned it off. Today I tried to turn it on but it didn't. I tried to charge it but even if the charging indicator light is red it doesn't turn on. It seems to be dead. What can I do?

Hello Anitamira,

 

-Could you please try removing the battery and the charger and Holding the power button for about a minute.

 

-Then connect once again the battery and the charger and try to turn on the computer.

 

-If that does not work, please try only with the charger and  remove the battery to see if there is a problem with the battery.

 

-Also check if when the computer turns on shows leds on the bloq mayusc button.

 

Please let me know if you have any question.

 

regards

Thank you so much !!! I am extremely happy, it actually worked even though my spectre doesn't have removable battery. I tried holding the power button for one minute and then I connected the charger and tried to turn on the computer holding the power button for one minute again and it finally worked!!! Hopefully I it won't happen again.
