Synology DS418 - Power button turns blue for 4 to 5 seconds then off

Trying to troubleshoot my DS418, I have seen that most peoples issue with their Synology NAS is the blue blinking light, my issue is that when I try to turn on, the blue light only stays on between 4 to 5 seconds , then the light goes back off. The device never actually turns on, no fans turning, no sound or beeps. I have tried removing all the drives, and different working power supplies, still the same result. Any help will be appreciated. I have also replaced the CR2032 battery.

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?
