The battery is connected, the adapter is connected - after I push the ON button the battery light flashes 11 times. With the battery removed and the adapter plugged on does not turn on any lights.

For both situations, nothing starts - other lights or fans. I have tryed with another adaptor.

Any suggestions?

Thank you!

    Remove the battery and power cord.

    Hold the start button for 15 seconds.

    Plug in power and see if it starts.

    If not, test or have tested the output of the power supply.

    Thank you for the answer!

    But no move, still...

    I already tried with another adapter. I even disassembled the laptop and checked if the adapter voltage reaches the motherboard.
    My hunch is that the battery may be good, has very little current in it, but the power supply within the motherboard and the loading circuit is not working.
