Sony DVP-S9000ES Power Supply (?) problem

[Ricktptman]

I was out in my workshop troubleshooting something else, when I decided to go through the system I have out there while moving gear around and straightening up. When I powered this DVD player (I use it for CD's/SACD's, not for DVD's anymore) up I pressed the button for the drawer to open-I believe it's a gear drive, not belt driven-and it didn't open. So I cycled the power button and it went from Red (power on the inlet but not switched on) to Green, to...OUT. Cycling it again accomplished nothing. I went into it and checked the PS fuse (F101) and it checked good. I momentarily bridged the fuse holder and still nothing. I only see one more fuse in the service manual (F401-too small for me to take a crack at replacing, frankly) and it's ostensibly way too far down past the power supply to be responsible for the DOA status of the player.

If anybody else has ever had any experience with these machines, I'd really appreciate a hand. I'm a motivated amateur technician, and certainly am not an expert. I'm not a kid anymore and my eyesight means that working on gear with absurdly small components and incomprehensibly large VLSI's have been low on my experience resume. If there's a reset button I've overlooked, (I don't see one of those in the SM either) please help a guy out. I hate to send it to the island of unloved but highly copper infused chassis toys if I can avoid it. Thanks in advance and best wishes to all...
