Suddenly, your beloved Lenovo X1 Carbon that was working only a short while ago, is now dead as a doornail. It does not respond to the power on button no matter how long it is kept on the charger. The fix is ever so simple as you will see. The fix also works for a number of other laptops that have a similar pin hole as you will see momentarily.
