Continue orang light when I press power button

System model?

If your laptop shows an orange light when you press the power button but won't start, here are some troubleshooting steps to consider:

1. Check the Power Supply:

   • Ensure that the power adapter is plugged in properly and that the indicator light on the adapter (if present) is on.
   • Try using a different wall outlet to rule out outlet issues.

2. Inspect the Power Connector:

   • Check the charging port for any debris or damage that could prevent proper connection.

3. Remove External Devices:

   • Disconnect all peripherals (USB devices, external monitors, etc.) and try to power on the laptop again.

4. Perform a Hard Reset:

   • Disconnect the power adapter and remove the battery (if removable).
   • Press and hold the power button for about 15-20 seconds to drain residual power.
   • Reconnect the battery and power adapter, then try to start the laptop again.

5. Check for Faulty RAM:

   • If you're comfortable doing so, reseat the RAM modules. A loose or faulty RAM stick can prevent the laptop from booting.

6. Look for Indicator Codes:

   • Check if the orange light is part of a blinking pattern. Refer to your laptop's manual or Dell's support site for diagnostic indicator meanings.

Also have this issue and have tried all of the things above but to no avail apparently it is a motherboard issue but I can't see anywhere on mine where it is damaged
