Lenovo T470 power-on issue

Hello everyone,

I haven't used my laptop for several days, which has been bouncing around in my bag from home to work.

It's possible that it has taken some minor jolts.

But currently, when I try to turn it on, the power button flashes 3 times in green and a small part of the keys lights up briefly for just a micro-second.

I've tried several things, like removing the battery, changing the power outlet, holding down the power button for a long time, checking the charger (which works on my work laptop which is the same model).

I even swapped it with a new battery that I had on hand, but nothing works.

Does anyone have a solution or explanation, please?

Thank you in advance.

    Hello,

    Open the PC, remove the SSD and test it via an external enclosure on another PC, using crystaldiskinfo!
