I've got a non responsive 12" MacBook. With the removal of all moving parts and no indicator lights on the computer or the USB-C cable, I have no way of knowing if anything is happening.

I opened the computer and saw it was in the singe digests on power, so I went to plug it in when it went dark. I let it charge for a bit, but it never came back. I tried holding the power button and rebooting, nothing. I have also tried the SMC reset sequence, nothing.

The case is slightly warmer on the bottom side, center rear, about where the logic board is. This is the only thing I have to go off of at this point.

Support at all my local Apple Stores are booked though Monday. Any suggestion would be appreciated

Thanks!
 
what about keep holding on the power button?
can you verify your apple type-c charger and cable are working?
 
what carestudio said, above. but if it's warm, it's on... does the caps light button light? try holding that power button until you hear it click off. then leave it off for a while.

you can just GO to the applestore; they'll make you wait, but you'll see someone eventually.
 
My macbook was working fine one minute, closed it, opened it a few hours later and nothing. Tried everything, different cables, charges, resets etc but no response. Logic board was replaced under warranty. Odd how it can just 'go' like that
