My Lenovo is out of warranty and stopped turning on. It’s not working even with the charging cable connected. I tried some solutions which I read on here like disconnecting the internal battery and reconnecting but it is still not starting up or any lights on. Any ideas on what to do or is the end of its life (motherboard failure?)

I just ran into the same issue trying to fix this for a friend. I tried a bunch of different things. Pull off the bottom cover, disconnect the battery, plug in AC adapter and it should boot with the battery disconnected. Once booted, reconnect the battery. Bad thing is when it goes to sleep or is shutdown you may have to repeat these steps to get it to turn back on. It's looking like a MB issue...
