Quick Fix for Lenovo X1 Carbon Not Powering Up

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.

I have exactly the same lap top. I follow your instructions. It didn't turn on !....What's next? Thank you.

I would try keeping the laptop on the charger for 30 min to ensure it has sufficient charge to boot up, and try again holding the battery disengage for 30 seconds. Do let me know if that did the trick.
