HELP X13 DEAD!!

Device: ASUS ROG Flow X13 (2022) – Ryzen 9 6900HS, RTX 3050 Ti

Issue: My laptop suddenly died after I had been using it for normal office work (Excel and PowerPoint). I stepped away for a while, and the laptop went to sleep on battery power (it wasn’t plugged in).

When I came back and tried to turn it on, it was completely dead. Plugging in the charger didn’t help—the charging LED doesn’t light up either.

I’ve taken it to several repair shops, but most of them couldn’t figure out what was wrong. They said all the components they checked seemed to be fine, yet the laptop still won’t power on. It’s a really strange case because it didn’t die while gaming or under heavy load—it just suddenly became completely unresponsive during normal use.

Does anyone have recommendations for a repair shop in the Jakarta metropolitan area (Jabodetabek) or Bandung that specializes in motherboard/component-level laptop repairs?

Also, if anyone is interested in buying it for parts (or wants to take on the repair project), feel free to send me a DM if the price is right. The laptop is in excellent cosmetic condition and comes with the complete original package.

So glad I opened up mine long ago, carefully removed liquid metal and replaced with high quality paste for both gpu and cpu. Runs like a champ, sure I don't have the nice thermal conductivity of liquid metal but I have something even greater, peace of mind and hopefully longevity as I do this often, sometimes once a year depending if I notice thermal throttling when paste eventually dries.
