ASUS TUF Dash F15: Won't turn on. Is my system saveable?

Sat, 25 Jul 2026 18:30:44 -0700

Hi, so first the system would just flat crash while I was gaming, no blue screen or warning just going down. After yesterday it stopped turning on at all. I think it's possible it was over heating but I'm wondering what my next steps could be.

ASUS TUF Dash F15: What options do I have when power button does not work?

Tue, 23 Jun 2026 16:59:47 -0700

My laptop does not power on with the power button anymore, the only option I know I can do is unplug battery, replug battery and then power the device, this will automatically power the device.

There does not seem to be an option in the BIOS that powers the device when plugged in by default.

I have tried to clean and reseat the power button, it requires to remove basically everything from the laptop. This unfortunately did not work.

What are other options I have to repair the power button or alternative to powering the laptop?

ASUS TUF Dash F15: Shows it’s charging but not turning on

Sat, 09 May 2026 18:29:17 -0700

I closed my laptop before heading to bed without shutting it down, I usually shut it down but I guess I wasn’t thinking. Came to try getting back on it and it shows it’s charging but won’t turn on. The keyboard won’t light up like it usually does and the screen stays black. The laptop itself was a bit warm too when it was left there for hours without being used. I don’t know what to do

ASUS TUF Dash F15: Display won't turn on, battery indicator flashes white.

Sun, 03 May 2026 13:42:36 -0700

Context:
I left my laptop on overnight, and it shut itself down from low battery by the time I woke up. Perfectly normal, I've done that multiple times. Laptop worked perfectly fine before this problem occured.
-------------------------
To my dismay, when I plugged the charger in and turned the laptop back on, I was greeted with a black screen, followed by the battery indicator light blinking white 3 times, in approx 5second intervals.
I thought it had been the battery not charging, but when I turned the laptop off, the battery indicator glowed orange, indicating that it was in fact charging like normal.

I've disconnected the battery by opening the laptop up, held the power button for 30 seconds, thinking the problem was static in the components, but that too did nothing.
I did notice a bit later however, that all the fans and internal components sounded like they were running.
Finally, I tried hooking the laptop up to an external display. As I suspected, it worked.
No signs of the original laptop display being detected, though. I was wondering if I could get the original laptop display working again.

I'd appreciate if anybody could diagnose the problem, and help me with a fix, if any. Cheers!

ASUS TUF Dash F15: Powers On, No POST, Keyboard flashes, Black Screen

Wed, 15 Apr 2026 21:10:10 -0700

I am diagnosing an Asus TUF Dash F15 FX516PE-AB73. There is no SSD installed. I attempt to power on with no POST,

Power LED solid white
Battery LED blinks 5 times then 5 second interval
Keyboard LEDs flash non-stop

Secondary question; do these newer laptops need a drive inside them to POST? I am trying to get to the BIOs.

ASUS TUF Dash F15: Laptop screen gets a black screen/horizontal lines at 144hz mode

Fri, 20 Mar 2026 01:37:41 -0700

My ASUS TUF F15 FX516PC is having annoying display issues where sometimes it boots with static horizontal lines or a full black screen with a tiny line that shows my desktop with the static horizontal lines.

It seems to be only a integrated display issue though, if I plug an external screen using HDMI or USB-C the screen starts working fine again, or if I switch the refresh rate from 144hz to 60hz. Could this be a software issue or something wrong with the display cable and/or screen?

ASUS TUF Dash F15: Is my motherboard dead?

Fri, 20 Feb 2026 23:12:33 -0700

I was redoing the thermal paste, and when done, I reconnected the battery to the mother oard. There was a flash at the contact point. Now the computer will not turn on at all, no indicator lights, nothing. Same happens when battery is removed. Is my motherboard dead? Not including shipping, handling, taxes, or tariffs, a new mobo is looking to be $600-800.

ASUS TUF Dash F15: My laptop won't turn on and shows a red light when I plug it in.

Thu, 18 Dec 2025 16:15:57 -0700

I was playing and left it AFK for a minute, and when I came back I realized it had turned off by itself. I tried to turn it on, but only the keyboard lit up and there was no video.

I turned it off and opened it thinking it might be the battery, but it didn't work.

I've tried several things but none of them work

ASUS TUF Dash F15: Laptop won't power on or any display light after EDP cable disconected

Sat, 15 Nov 2025 01:22:03 -0700

The screen on my laptop suddenly failed but I got a display out using another screen through HDMI. I figured I should check the EDP cable.

I opened the laptop screen first and checked the cable on the screen side (actually made a mistake and looked at the wifi chip antenna first). It looked fine but still I very carefully used tweazers to disconect and reseat it.

After this I then openned the main chassis and disconected the 40 pin EDP cable. I cliked the power on button but very quickly realized I had left the EDP cable disconected so I pressed ot again to force a shutdown. I then reconectected the EDP cable (no damaged pins, I triple checked). This time when pressing the power button there was no sign of life.

I reopened everyting and took out the battery, did the 60 second hard reboot, put the battery and power cord back on but nothing. The computer shows no indication of even being powered.

What else should I check or do?

Thank you very much for any help

After a 5-hour session in games, I went to the desktop and heard some kind of squeak from the laptop (it was not from the headphones and not from the speakers, namely from the motherboard) I turned it off and went to bed, and the next morning it just did not turn on and also none of the indicators were on and the keyboard backlight was not lit, at all it did not give any signs of life and does not give, tried a lot, but nothing helped.

ASUS TUF Dash F15: Need advice on how to fix hinge before more serious damage occurs

Fri, 15 Aug 2025 07:38:51 -0700

Dear Sirs,

Thank you ahead of time for your advice!

the screw on the bottom of my ASUS F15 which secures the left screen hinge became loose, so I tightened it myself, but it became loose again so I tightened it again, but evidently that and some movement from opening and closing the laptop has worn away the plastic around the hole for the screw, big enough for the screw head to slip through. I have been opening and closing it as infrequently as possible and putting pressure with my thumb and forefinger on the top and bottom of the case over the screw hole to keep any unseen damage to a minimum, but I have to get this repaired before things get worse. I was thinking of a small metal bar with a hole for a longer screw epoxied to the bottom of the laptop case, but I have no idea where to find replacement screws of the correct size. There are also 4 other screws missing, 2 on each side of the hinge. It's a great laptop other than this situation. I live in Costa Rica and the only time I took a laptop to be repaired here for a simple power connector issue, the idiot basically destroyed the %#*@ thing so I feel I cant trust anyone else here to do it, I have to do it myself. Where can I find replacement screws, especially a longer screw? Is there any Asus-certified place you could recommend? Is there another way to fix it? I can hear things rubbing around in the hinge area when I close and open it, despite my putting pressure on the case to keep the damage minimal! Should I put LocTite on the screws when I replace them? What are the screw specs and how can I get some replacements, especially a longer one for a repair like the one I described. I can't believe the screw came out by themselves. Unprecedented. Other than that, this laptop is awesome so I gotta preserve it.

Thanks so much!

ASUS TUF Dash F15: Cracked screen - difficulty level to change it myself

Thu, 23 Jan 2025 12:20:19 -0700

Hello,

I recently had a very noticeable crack on my ASUS TUF Dash F15 screen due to an object that fell on the back of the computer and dented the back. I have never disassembled a computer or changed a screen and I wanted to know if the operation was very complicated or not on this model ? I would like to save myself $200/300$ in bills to have it repaired by someone else.

How do I find a reliable site in Canada to order a new screen ? Do you know what the average prices are for the screen of this model ? Do you have any recommendations for screen models ?

I put all my savings into this computer and I am stressed about finding it in a bad condition/tampered with/stolen/lost if I give it to a repair store. I am afraid that they will break my computer even though it has been working perfectly for 2 years and only the screen is damaged...

Thanks in advance for your help!

(If you ever have any YouTube tutorials for changing the screen of this model step by step, I'm interested, I haven't found much for the moment.)

ASUS TUF Dash F15: Screen slowly turns black from the bottom up, like pixels dying

Heya, this has only just started happening, but the longer I use it for, the more rows of pixels "die" from the bottom up.

It will go away if I shut down and close it for a good day or two

Hi,

I have this laptop for 2years, I’ve been playing mid to high graphics for almost a year and now my laptop is overheating while playing low graphics games. I did some research how to clean the fans and turned off unwanted software and update my drives (already did them still same results) now I’m thinking because of my thermal paste.
