Framework 16 not powering up after a day in suspend

Bummer,

I just read this in the FW16 motherboard replacement guide and it said:

  • As we disconnected the battery in BIOS at the beginning of this guide, we can now reconnect it.
  • Start by connecting an a charger to the Framework Laptop 16, it will not power on without one until the battery is reconnected.
  • Press the power button and then repeatedly press the F2 Key to boot into the Framework UEFI BIOS

Oops!

There is a HARD reset the mainboard procedure for the FW13 AMD boards you have to press the chassis intrusion switch ten times (press and hold for 2 seconds, wait for LEDs to flash RED) then it resets EVERYTHING though but that should put it back to when you first took it out of the box. The switch on the FW16 is just below the left memory module.

If you have secureboot enabled though or keys in your TPM they get wiped out though.
