No power from battery or charger

I have a, ‘Asus Chromebook Vibe CX34 Flip’. I disconnected the battery then plugged in the charger and usb stick (to install linux). I pressed power button and nothing happened. No screen or led light. After waiting an hour, I gave up trying to install linux and decided to keep using chromeOS. Unplugged the charger and reconnected the battery. The chromebook won’t even turn on with the battery. WTF happened?!
