I have be had the “no start/no charge led” problem about 8 times in since owning. No combination of power & volume keys will fix it. After a day or two it magically fixes itself and will start with just the power button.
This week it happened again and after 3 days it still wouldn’t start. I opened the case. It’s fairly easy after removing the 2 micro screws on on either side of the USB C port. I didn’t have a small enough star driver, but a very small flat blade works too. Inside, at the other end, is the motherboard under a thin plastic cover held with small philips screws. Remove the cover; the battery connector is in the center. Unplug the battery connector, wait a few seconds, plug it back. The problem is fixed……………. Until the next time.
Since I expect the problem to repeat, i “nibbled” the plastic cover in the area of the battery connection. Next time, I won’t have to remove the motherboard cover to disconnect the battery.
