Asus Memo Pad Smart (10") won't turn on

Hi Andrew,

I would return the device to your retailer unless one of these works...
1. Try a loooong press on the power button - up to 60 seconds or until the device turns on
2. Try a "cold boot" (link in signature)

All the best

Good Evening from Spain,
I have been using an Asus Memo Pad Smart 10 for 2 years and it worked fine. But yesterday, I was transfering files to my desktop PC via USB cable, and when it finished I disconnected the USB cable and the Tablet turn off. After this it won't turn on.

I have tried the following:

a) Hard reset using the reset button
b) Cold boot
c) Press the power button for at least 60 sec
d) Connect to my desktop PC via USB cable again

And nothing.

It looks like the charge process Works ok. When I plug it in to charge, a orange light lights up on the power button, and when the charge has finished it turned Green. This is the only thing it seems to work, becouse the screen is always black.

Thank you.

Sounds like either a backlight failure or possibly a loose cable. You can try dismantling your tablet and disconnecting the ribbon cable , clean the contacts and reconnect.

You can connect your device by HDMI to a TV maybe to see if the tablet is actually on.

Than You very much for your quick response.
I dismantle my tablet and disconnec the ribbon cable , clean the contacts and reconnect, but it won't turn on. Also I connect it by HDMI to a TV but there was not video on TV. I find it incredible but it looks like the charge process is the only thing that Works ok.
Thank you again.
