    Hey,
    Unplug the power form the BICU and see if that turns on machine, if it does just go through all the connectors one at a time to see the line pulling down the voltage.

      Try unplugging the HDD and powering up the machine.
      Customers have a nasty habit of flicking the power off if they can't clear a jam for some spastic reason and the HDD may have been in the middle of something at the time.

        I would go with the HDD also, as most of the new generation colours won't boot it the hdd is dead or not connected. It is almost as if it is seeing the hdd as extra memory, and will not start without it.

          Polygon mirror motor can also cause this. There's an updated one, part number AX060396.
          It's 106 miles to Chicago. We've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses.

          Hit it.
