Short update, I managed to find another Laptop to test the wifi module and appears to be ok. So, the slot seems to have issues. As long as the laptop now works I‘m happy and will use an usb solution for it.
Thanks so much for your help.

By now, I'm almost certain that the laptop is working normally. I used it over the whole day, shut it down and rebooted it countless times without any issues, I'm cautiously optimistic. :-)
I'm using it with a Wifi USB Stick, currently. Is there any way to determine whether the m2 slot is defective or the wlan module itself before ordering a spare? Or should I just get a nano Wifi stick for the USB port?

While I‘m waiting for the USB meter, I reassembled the laptop and removed the wlan card. After some hickups and a reset the laptop has been booting up and shutting down as supposed for a while. That being said it happened in between my countless tries before as well.. but it feels way more regularly than before.
I‘ll keep using it and will come back, thanks much.@ [B][URL="https://www.badcaps.net/member/149220-mcplslg123"]mcplslg123[/URL] [/B]​

Hello friends,

I've been racking my brain over the past few months on the following issue:
I have a Lenovo Ideapad 5 15ARE05 laptop that basically works fine as long it starts up at all.

If you shut it down, often you hear the HDD still spinning and the Power LED remains on, it only shuts down if you force it (pressing the power button for like 15 seconds).
Then, if you want to Switch it on, nothing happens, only the Power LED lights on, nothing else. If you leave it, then after like 30-60mins it turns on itself.
I tried all the common alleged „fixes“...
