my iPad will not turn on or off

No problem. Let's make absolutely certain you did the following:

Press and hold BOTH the home (round button on the front of your iPad) and the power button at the SAME time. Keep holding them for several seconds until the screen goes black and KEEP HOLDING until the Apple Logo appears, then let go of both buttons. When people try this process, they almost always don't hold the two buttons in long enough.

If this won't work for you, the next step is to schedule and appointment at your Apple Store Genius Bar and let Apple help you.

You tried every solution offered in the Related Article Link at the top of this page, which brought you here?

Since you marked my question as solved, should I assume then that one of the solutions solved it for you?

You are very welcome and I'm glad I was able to help you. I too hope things continue working well for you, but if you need us, don't hesitate to come back.

I'd restore. Keep in mind iPad Air 2 was released in 2014, so it's an 8 year old device, which is likely on its last legs.

You're welcome and good luck!

I can't answer that question. It should likely be seen at the Apple Genius Bar for evaluation, if possible.
