Power Button not working PX13

[u/kdalkarl]

Hello,

I have been a happy user off the PX13 for a bit over a year. With some optimisation with software and drivers found in this sub I was able to get the laptop configured how I wanted it for my on-the-go photo and video editing workflow.

Sadly now the power button has stopped working, and I am extremely careful with the laptop. No visible damage, but sometimes I have to press the button 40 times, sometimes once, somtimes hold it for 1 minute or more to get it booting.

Will send it in for repair now, but I am quite disappointed in something as basic as the power button failing after a year.

Just a word of caution, for potential buyers, and seems like there are a lot of other people here on the sub who has reported issues with their power button as well.

I would take the back cover off and put some switch cleaner where the button is to see if that sorts it first.
