Seems as though now that the console is not even starting to load the operating system.
Try a full power refresh and check if that resolves the problem.
Turn off the console if it is on and then disconnect the power from the console.
Remove the coin cell battery from the motherboard. Unfortunately for you it is located on the underside of the motherboard so it will need to be removed to get to it. See the image below showing where it is on the board.
Here's the ifixit [guide|88798] guide that will help.
When the coin cell battery is out, measure its voltage. If it is <2.5V DC or if the battery is >4-5 years old, replace it. The battery model number is on the battery itself e.g. CR2032 perhaps.
Reinsert the coin cell battery (usually +ve on top as marked on the battery - check before removal), reassemble the console and check if it turns on OK with a display etc.
