When I plug it into a charger, I heard it charging. How do I get it to turn on? Try a hard rest (Home + Power for about 20s or until the apple logo pops up). If that is unsuccessful then open the phone and try reseting the screen connectors on the logic board....

Chosen Solution Please help. Screen black, laptop is on, I can hear it running. Won’t power off even when holding down power button over a minute. First thing to do is connect to an external display, see if the external display lights up. It’s possible that the laptop thinks it’s closed, and therefore once higher functions take over it assumes a signal from the inaccessible power button must be erroneous. Shine a bright flashlight across the display at an acute angle while you inspect it from a normal viewing angle....

Chosen Solution Why does water not come into machine Hi, Have you checked that both of the water supply taps (faucets) for the washer are turned on? Does it do this when either hot or cold is selected? If hot works OK but not cold (or vise versa) then there may be a problem with the water inlet valve in the machine or perhaps the control board.

If the water dispenser only drips while its off the internal leak may be related to thermal expansion (info) and contraction or the small leak may be evaporating off before you see it while the unit is running. In any case its probably going to get worse....
