    You should not try to press the interlock with the base cover off. Please tape a spacer inside the cover so it presses harder against the button when you screw the base cover back on. Then you can test if the machine turns on.

    If it still does not turn on, then disconnect the battery from the mainboard. Put the cover back on and try to turn the laptop on with only the charger and battery disconnected inside.

    Answer ✓
    If the machine is not under warranty, and you don't have access to a multimeter or borrow from a friend to check for 19vdc output, then I suggest that you take the machine to a local laptop repair shop for an evaluation and estimated repair since they will have the equipment to do so. Sorry  I have no way of testing your laptop on line or suggesting any further possibilities. Unless the CPU/GPU suddenly overheated for some reason and destroyed the mainboard, no power or battery LED activity whatsoever suggests a discharged battery possibly from an internal cell short and/or subsequent damage to the charger.
