    I have a 1520 here and when I plugged the connector for the palmwrest into the motherboard the media lights lit up for a seconds ... and that was it.

    It wont power on and I can't quite figure it out.

    I'm kind of in the process of piecing together a 1520 so I can get rid of all of my extra laptop parts in one shot here but this is hindering my progress.
