If the power button switch is disconnected, how do you normally power your machine on? I wonder if your device is just never off, so that was never an issue until now. In which case, you’ll need the power button to turn it on since it’s presently off.
See what happens if you hit the “Novo” buttion. Most Lenovos have one. It’s usually a pinhole reset type button, on the bottom panel, or along the side.

You’ll probably need a paperclip or something you can poke into the tiny hole to click with button with. Press and hold the button for a couple seconds. This should prompt the device to power on and boot to a menu where you can access BIOS, or recovery options, among other things.
