Chances are it's the known issue with charging which can cause the internal fuse to blow on the MPX200.
Unless you are very good with a soldering iron it's not a user repairable fault.

pull the battery out, leave it for a day, plug it back in, turn phone on (if possible) then charge. sounds strangely untechnical and unscientific, but oddly enough it worked for a friend's smartphone and my old moto v525!

and in conclusion, electronics can be very weird.

Hi,
Remove battery and warm it on a radiator for a while, till the heat is right through it [don't get it too hot ]then replace the battery and put it on charge,don't switch it on, this sometimes works with old laptop batteries, but, it's not guaranteed, good luck.

If you can borrow a battery try that first, if it works, ok, they're cheaper than new phones !.
