Hello, so I have a lenovo n23 yoga chromebook. The chromebook won't turn on and it doesn't show any lights or any other signs of life. I have confirmed that the charger works. I have tried replacing the battery, the main motherboard, and the little daughter board where the power button is on. One thing to note is that I replaced those, part by part as in, I would put the new part in and if it wouldn't work I would put the old one back in. So it could be that it's a combination of several different parts thats causing the issue. I've tried holding the power button in for 30 seconds without the battery plugged in. I've also tried connecting to an external monitor. Nothing works. Any tips tricks or advice please!

I'm having the same problem as the original poster, but pressing esc + refresh and the power button is not working. What else can I try?

Hi yrt,

Thanks for reaching out.

If the steps provided did not work  it is possible that the machine may have hardware related issues.

We would recommend contacting Lenovo Helpdesk by using this link if this is the case.

We hope this helps.

Yes, I realize there is a hardware issue somewhere. I was wondering if someone had input to help pinpoint which piece of hardware the issue is coming from.

Hi Ablayz,

Since this is a hardware issue I would still recommend having the machine checked by an actual technician to avoid further issues.

Hope this helps.
