@miguelcardiga you can no longer reset your BIOS PW by disconnecting the CMOS battery, or jumper settings etc. The password is stored on an encrypted IC on the motherboard.

Your service center is correct that you will utilize paid repairs or even a motherboard replacement. You can of course always try and contact Huawei and see if they can help you.
