I bought a new sdd and tried changing it and now there's no power at all, with the new and the old sdd! When I press the power button I hear the cd area click once and that's it! Please help. I also just changed the keyboard and I had problems with the battery but when it's plugged in to charge I can see the charge light.

    Temporarily put the old KB and old SSD back in exactly as they were before you started. The base cover must be fully screwed on. Then try to turn it on again with the old KB & old SSD.  If it turns on OK, then replace only the old KB with the new KB. Try to turn it on again. If OK, the replace the old SSD with the new SSD. While inconvenient, don't try to change more than one thing at a time without testing each new change when these things happen. Jack E/NJ
