Chosen Solution
I opened my laptop (vivobook s15 r542uq) to clean the fans. I unplugged keyboard and trackpad connectors and cleaned the fans and put it back together. Didn’t touch the battery. My laptop now won’t power up on battery, no lights nothing but if i would plug in the charger, it boots without pressing power. If I take out the cable, it dies instantly. I opened to check once more but can’t find anything. The battery has no connectors running out of it. Help. Pics : https://imgur.com/FPsKHk9

We humans tend to think too complicately. Of that simple solution may take a bit of work to find! With the charger disconnected I would disassemble, check as above. If all looks good then take the battery out. Remember to press the power button to discharge any power left in the system. Go off and have a cup of tea and then reinstall the battery. Plug in the charger and wait about 30 minutes. Unplug the charger and then press the power button. Does the laptop turn on? If not replace the battery.
There are a few steps that every person or tech typically follows so often that we tend, yes I’m guilty as well, to skip. Unplug the deviceRemove batteryDrain residual power from device and/or Resetting CMOS , by holding down the power button (amount of time ranges depending on the device.
Your battery is dead. Replace it. And to make sure it’s actually dead, try the same battery on identical laptop. And if it’s comes that battery is fine then, it’s the issue with the chip that identifies and manages battery in the laptop.
