MacBook Air 2017 suddenly entirely unresponsive
My mom's Macbook Air 2017 was plugging along fine until a couple days ago. She used it regularly for basic browsing, email, and zoom calls. On Monday morning, she used it for a bit, then closed the lid. But when she came back that evening and opened the lid, the screen refused to turn on. When she plugged in the cord, the cord light turned orange to indicate charging, but even after waiting a while for it to charge up, it wouldn't turn on. It appears to be stuck in a powered-off state.
I've tried everything on apple's troubleshooting page, including resetting the SMC, but to no avail.
A friend suggested that the battery might have gone bad, so I tried disconnecting the battery and powering it just from the power card, but it didn't work.
If anyone has any advice for what could have gone wrong or what to try next, I would be very appreciative.
