[Electrical] AF MP 1100 "PLEASE WAIT" when powering on

[zoran.riko]

HI !
When the machine was in printing (working) mode, the operator guy switched off the power switch of the building. After that hi remove paper jams and turn the machine ON but "PLEASE WAIT" is on the display continuosly without posibility to go in service mode.
I replace the Controller board, power supply and IO board, but still have the same problem.
When turning ON the machine is duing processing and can hear the ready beep sound but stil same message on the OP. Panel. I replace the OP. Panel too but nothing happends.
Any suggestions PLEASE ...

Usually it's a Hard Disk problem when the machine stay in Please Wait.

By controller board do you mean the entire controller unit or just the controller board? Check the PSU for blown fuses too.

Disable the machine off, then disconnect the cables from the HDD and then on machine.
if machine come in READY then you have problem with HDD.
You must format HDD.

Has the fuser unit had a rebuild recently, I had the same fault, and it turned out to be one of the fuser lamps, was in the wrong poistion, the servcie manual does point which one goes where. I did the same unplugged HDD, and replaced etc. The fault would clear and then come back next day, or the same.
