First check the battery compartment door. There is a micro switch that turns the camera off when you open it. If the battery cover does not press down on the switch, the camera won't go on. Make sure that the battery compartment door covers the batteries so that the micro switch senses that the cover is closed.

I found that this switch is broken on my camera, so is it possible to disable the battery door switch?

@zea213 Take the camera apart, remove the main board, and put a jumper wire on the board. Seal it with UV-curing resin.
