Update.

I think i found the problema.

The on/off switch has a little wiggle which allows to turn it of/off when nuc Is dissasembled.

The top cover limits the switch movement to UP AND down AND switch does not engage. I Guess its a poor quality switch. ​

Please spray on this switch same contacts cleaner (something like Servisol). Wait one hour after spraying.

León, Thanks for.replying​. i tried AND it didnt work. The plástic Is worn out a little. I had to remove the button from top cover (breaking it) AND glued an extensión of the switch which i can press without dissasembling the nuc.

Looks like crap but works.​

I Will try to buy a new cover.

Goodbye​
