1st gen yoga 14 S1 intermittent battery cutoff

#1 Post by jamerslong » Wed Jan 06, 2016 8:31 pm

My Yoga S1 has that power switch issue where the battery cutoff switch for the rear cover is broken somehow. When its not plugged in you can flex the laptop like so that the switch will cutout.

Can anyone direct me to a fix for this?

Thanks
