But I was wondering if there was some common cause of this in these units: a voltage regulator, or filter capacitor in the power supply known for going bad and causing this? I figure if it won't power on at all, it might just be a power supply issue that I can actually fix and nothing else that is wrong with this unit.
Is that the model with a separate power supply module or is everything on the main board? Do you have an idea who made it for Thompson?
