😱 “It Just Died… No Light, No Fan – Nothing!”
Ahmed, a gamer and engineering student in Doha, walked into Shooter for Computer holding a Lenovo Legion 5 gaming laptop. He looked completely defeated.
“I was just closing the lid, and it shut off. Now it won’t turn on at all. No charging light. No fan spin.”
We’ve heard this story before.
No visible damage. No water spill. Just… dead.
🧠 The Hidden Culprit: Broken LCD Connector Causing a Short
After removing the bottom panel and inspecting the board, our technician noticed something many general repair shops would miss — the LCD connector was cracked, with visible signs of arc damage.
When the LCD cable was closed a bit forcefully, it shorted a key power line, making the whole laptop look completely dead.
🔍 Symptoms of This Problem
- Laptop shows no power at all
- No charging LED, no fan spin
- Plugged in charger doesn’t react
- External display also shows nothing
- Issue started right after lid movement or screen repair

Here’s how we revived Ahmed’s Lenovo Legion:
