What is the exact Nitro 5 model number, as your problem could be many, either the actual battery and its connection to the mobo, power DC Mostats and capacitors that are shorted etc etc and needs to be diagnosed by a technician. Get another and new battery and disconnect the rtc/bios battery and disconnect the ram, leave them disconnected for 15min and reconnect all with the new main battery and see if with a new battery the power on problem is fixed. will fix this problem.

Thank you for your answer!! Model number is NITRO AN515-43 ( N18C3)

Do you know the difference between AP18E7M and AP18E8M batteries? I ask because there is an AP18E8M in my laptop, and when I enter the model of the laptop (AN515-43) on ebay they give me an AP18E7M as its battery?
