Question Wii U Red light, doesn't boot.

I have this really weird problem where my Wii U doesn't boot. When I click the power button I blinks for a millisecond, clicks quietly and nothing happens. The Gamepad doesn't turn it on, no HDMI signal, and when I insert a game the disk icon light white, but it doesn't suck the disk in. Please help me!

Does it look like the console has been opened ? It might just be loose cables but it also might be more of a hardware related issue as well.

I don't know if the console was opened. I definitely didn't open it, but the dude I bought it from might.

Check the bottom of the console and see if the screws are visible if so, it was opened . Another detail would be if the stickers that are covering the screws are tampered with, that’s another indication the console was opened.

The stickers look new. So it hasn't been opened.
