Vostro 3530 not powering on when lid is opened even when "Enable Lid Switch" was enabled in BIOS

Vostro 15 3530

Vostro 15 3530

Hi there,

I have 3 new brand Vostro 3530 where I am unable to get Power on Lib Switch to work. In the BIOS, I have set "Enable Lib Switch" (under the Power section) to on. However when I open the lid, laptop does not power on.

There is no other options in the BIOS that is related to lid switch. I have tried BIOS version 1.6 and 1.8 and both have no luck.

Just wondering if that is common issue to other Vostro 3530 users? Or perhaps there are some additional settings I need to change for it to work, please?

Edmond.

According to Dell support, it is simply a matter of enabling the lid switch and clicking on apply then exiting the BIOS clicking on accept changes.

@JOcean​ Yeah. That was what I thought too but it simply don't work. And the same problem on all Vostro 3530 that we have (3). Perhaps I need to log a job with Dell.

Thanks.
