If your laptop won't turn on when it's unplugged, it is possible that the battery is the problem. Before attempting to fix it yourself, you should first try some troubleshooting steps to see if the problem can be resolved without having to open up the laptop or replace any parts. Here are some steps to try:
There is a chance that if you reseat the battery and boot it up with the power adapter plugged that it may work again. I would recommend calibrating the battery as well and leaving it on charge for about 30 minutes. After that, shut down and try to boot with the adapter unplugged.
If the adapter light stays on then a short is not likely. If possible try another Dell adapter. It is also possible that the DC jack is having problems and needs to be replaced. Least likely cause, the MB charging circuit is not working. @JOcean Forgot to mention I did have them disconnected when trying that but didn't work also.
Difficulty in inserting the DC plug suggests that either the plug is damaged (which should be visible) or that the jack is damaged (harder to see, but more likely). Most computer repair shops will have Dell adapters on hand and will likely let you try one to rule out the adapter (or pinpoint the problem to that) without charge.
Boot Windows in safe mode and check still your battery is stuck at 3%; press and hold the Shift key, restart Computer, then Troubleshoot > Advanced option > Startup Settings > Restart. If that does not help, it might be a hardware issue; please get in touch with Asus support for further assistance. Thank you.
