I turned off my laptop and then removed panel and checked my screen but flicker issue was still there so I turned off my laptop and then replaced my screen and when I turned it on it won't boot so I tried plugging in my charger and there was orange indicator and I tried turning it on but nothing so I unplugged and tried to power on but nothing and now after connecting the power cable there is no light and it's not turning on. I have replaced display on my other laptops but never faced such issue this first time don't know what is wrong with this model. I tried to unplug battery and then power it on with supply but nothing, put old display nothing, tried with other charger and in different rooms but nothing.

Any suggestions or ideas needed

    @aniketjdhv1 before doing the screen replacement, you must unplug the battery first (very important!), otherwise, the power IC might be shorted. Try to unplug the battery, and hold the power button for 15 secs for the power reset.

    @aniketjdhv1 for now, is there any indicator light when you plug the charger in?

    I showed it to service center and he told me Intel chipset issue in short pch short and I asked many ppl but they told me they are unable to change it as it's complicated but I literally saw a video on YouTube where exact same issue with same model was solved by a guy within an hour so probably gonna ask other service center else have to replace motherboard and I searched it online but nothing online.

    Any site you can suggest to buy genuine one?

    Also I want to know it this issue that complicated?

    @aniketjdhv1 that's unfortunate to hear. You can try to find a store that is specialized in motherboard repair for replacing that PCH chip. Otherwise, you will have to replace the motherboard which is very expensive. You can get it from your local PC parts shop or Aliexpress.
