HP EliteBook Folio 9480m: Pressing power button turns on keyboard light but nothing else happens

Sun, 19 Jan 2025 21:12:52 -0700

When I press the power button, the keyboard lights will enter some kind of loop, where they turn on and off repeatedly, but nothing else happens, no image on screen, no boot messages or image, nothing.

I tried replacing the battery with a new one, and tried using a different charger, and still have the same issue.

A late update: ~1 month after resolving the issue, the laptop started having similar problems again. To solve them, i just removed 1 of the RAM modules. Haven't had any more issues, apart from a defective battery. So it seems the problem was the RAM.

HP EliteBook 840 G6: Laptop power blinks white and orange, not turning on.

Sat, 06 Jun 2026 13:19:38 -0700

I have a new laptop, worked fine and then it was dropped. And now it no longer turns on. The power button would light up along with the caps lock light then turn off. I plugged in the charger and it shows no life. So i took the battery out and put the power adapter in and now the indicator light blinks white, amber, and then stays amber. Sometimes the keyboard lights will come on and sometimes it will not but the screen will never come on. Might I mention that while putting the battery connector back in, a light on the board would flash white and go away. Same with the power adapter. I'm not sure what to make of it, I contacted HP Support and they were no help.

HP EliteBook 840 G6: No power or life (no light indicators either)

Fri, 02 Feb 2024 10:39:31 -0700

My laptop was previously working fine but now it seems to show no signs of life at all. I’ve refreshed the bios, unplugged the battery and plugged it back in numerous times, and even went to the extent of unplugging it and plugging it back in. Some of the chips heat up when the laptop is plugged in but that’s it. I’ve left it behind for a few months but now I come back to it. I have little to no hope of its revival, but if anyone is able to please help that would be very much appreciated.

HP EliteBook 850 G3: Power LED blinks white and orange

Fri, 12 Jun 2026 14:51:56 -0700

This is the second machine I've seen in a week with the same problem, or at least very similar.

The one on my bench presently is an Elitebook 850 G8, the one I replaced a system board on was an Elitebook 845 G7. As soon as any type of power is connected, either battery or AC adapter, the charger LED will turn on white, but blink amber simultaneously. I believe it blinks 10 times. I have been unable to find any documentation for this specific error. This persists even if I remove connections from the system board to any other hardware aside from whichever power I am connecting. Even trying to power on with no RAM gives this error, will not beep/blink to indicate the system does not detect RAM. I do not even need to indicate power on for this to occur. As soon as there is enough contact with whichever connector to transmit the necessary power, it starts.

I have even tried running a BIOS recovery to no avail. This 850 G8 on my bench seems as though it will try to power, keyboard backlight will come up, Caps lock LED will light steady, no blink codes. It's under warranty, so ultimately it's probably going to get a new system board, but I want to know what this error is.

HP EliteBook 840 G2: Battery changed with new one still not charging.

Wed, 27 Jul 2022 15:46:16 -0700

The battery is isn’t charging after placing a new battery in, it seems when the laptop is started it shows as charging then stops.

I have downloaded the HP assistant and done a battery check, the results come back as no battery detected?

I am not sure what the issue is, but we have also notice the date and time is out of sync and the laptop is only running on the AC charger, could this be an issue with the mother board?

HP EliteBook 8440p: How do your remove the keyboard?

Mon, 19 Mar 2018 01:30:10 -0700

HP's video take apart instructions say nothing about how to remove the keyboard. It just shows it already out. I snapped off one esc key tring to pull it up and stopped there. HP was no help. I've removed a ton of keyboards from Macs and there are sliders at the top of them, and I assumed, most laptops. On the HP I slid the 4 locking sliders back but couldn't lift or pry the keyboard off. So, what's the secret?

When I start or plug inthe laptop the lights turn on with no display. After that the CAPS and NUMS lock blinks exactly 5 time and then the fan runs at top speed. I have tried the bios reupdate, cleaned the rams and SSD. I even tried to change these and removed the cell on the mother board with 30 secs of pressing power button
