Do you have any method to power up the laptop? I noticed others using tools to restart computers, even older ones, but I’m having trouble getting it to turn on. Your help would be really appreciated. Thanks!

Is this the power switch? Most laptops feature it built into the keyboard or attached to the keyboard edge via a motherboard module. This setup relies on a tool connecting the same pins the switch uses, which is common on custom desktop boards. Laptops integrate tighter, making it less flexible.

I agree, but this board came from an older Lenovo laptop, not the latest model.

That probably won't work then. You need the parts that go with that motherboard. What model ThinkPad is it?

The power switch is included in the keyboard. With a functional AC power supply, you should be able to turn on the laptop. If it fails, another issue might be present.
