Dell Inspiron 15 3521 won't start

Hi sunnykhan,

I am sorry about the situation; try releasing the static power and check the system is working. Follow the steps below.

Switch off the system; remove the battery, ac adapter and the power cable. Press and hold down the power button for thirty seconds to drain any excess static power.

In case the problem persists, Please pay close attention to the number of beeps. There is a big difference between a “beep-beep-beep” beep code and a “”beep-beep” beep code. Let us know how many times the system beeps.

Let us know about the progress.

I have tried to release static power many times but it never works, it is merely on chance that my laptop shows dell icon then I keep my laptop in sleep mode rather than shutting it down, I have observed beeps very carefully they are continuous no trend or what, its simple tuck tuck tuck from speakers.

Hi sunnykhan,

Please run the hardware diagnostics follow the steps below.

Press the FN + Power which will initiate the hardware diagnostics. Let us know if there is any error code listed.

Hi Senthil,

I have tried power = fn key together nothing happened instead I have to wait for my luck again when it will boot, its annoying tuck tuck  again, please help and suggest me !

Hi sunnykhan,

Please shut down the laptop, press the FN key first and then press the power button, this will intitate the hardware diagnostics.

Let me know about the progress.

Hi BigSmokeRed,

Please connect an external monitor and check if the issue persists. There is a pattern of beeps like “beep-beep-beep” beep code and a “”beep-beep” beep code. Let us know how many times the system beeps.

Hi Senthil

I have tried connecting an external monitor but I get the same problem. Like I said it is a continuous beeping noise more like a clicking/ tuck tuck sound. I left it last night and it didn't stop for an hour until I turned it off.
