      I think that your charger has gone bad. Please check voltage output of the charger plug with a multimeter. It should be at least 15volts DC Jack E/NJ

      How do you know the cable is broken if you haven't opened yet? Jack E/NJ

      You need to replace the power board and ribbon cable to avoid irreparable damage. Jack E/NJ

      Remove the charger. Gently insert a paperclip into the battery reset pinhole on the bottom cover for about 10 seconds. Then plug the charger back in. Try to turn the machine on again. Jack E/NJ

      Remove the charger again. Repeat the paperclip method for 30 seconds. Then let the battery rest for about 15 mins. Try to turn it on again without the charger plugged in. Jack E/NJ

      Do you mean it turns on again by itself?  Jack E/NJ

      Either you must tighten the RAM or remove the RAM door on the bottom and tape a spacer on a battery safety interlock swtich so it presses harder against the door. The switch must be fully depressed to keep the laptop on. Jack E/NJ
