[ACER PREDATOR HELIOS 300 PH315-53 PROBLEM] — My laptop won’t turn on and it is not charging. I already tried using other outlets or power source but it’s still not charging nor turning on. The battery is built-in that’s why I was not able to troubleshoot. So, I went to the repair shop and they told me that the problem is the keyboard itself; The power button doesn’t work. They said the solution is to replace the keyboard — isn’t weird that I’ve almost never used the built-in keyboard because I have my own external mechanical keyboard then it just broke like that? So my question is: Is there any way that I can bypass that power button? or is there any other feasible option other than replacing the keyboard? Thank you! Acer Predator Helios 300

No, you cannot bypass the Power Button and I don't believe that this is your problem as the battery is also not charging.

The battery is almost 3 years old which could mean the capacity is too low for charging. Before replacing the battery try to do this:
Power drain + CMOS reset: Open the back of the laptop, disconnect the battery cable from the motherboard and remove the battery. Locate the CMOS module in the battery slot and under a plastic cover (with 2 twisted wires Red and Black) and remove the CMOS coin battery. Shorten the +/- contacts inside the CMOS capsule for 2 seconds with a bended paperclip and put the coin battery back with the + sign facing up, close the CMOS capsule. Unseat/reseat the 2 DDR4 modules. Next, press the Power Button on the keyboard for 10-15 seconds after that replace and reconnect the battery to the motherboard. Close the laptop, plug-in the adapter and try to boot.
