My T430s has this problem where of I boot it up it will flash the keyboard and indicator lights like it will boot, then stop, then repeat without pushing the power button, no beeps, no screen.

Remove the battery, power supply and HD/SSD, then press and hold down the Power button for 15-20 seconds.
Then put in only the charger and try to boot.
Also try another power supply if you have it.

Been there, done that. I swapped ssd, took out battery, 3 different chargers and a few more things including the keyboard.

Did you check/replace the CMOS battery?
Take out RAM, try to boot, does it beep 1-3-3-1?
If not, you may need a new mobo.
