What Did I Do?!?!?!?

As I was changing media the fans running as usual when the lever is up.

Then all of the sudden everything STOPPED.

No Fans....No Lights....No LCD Screen...Absolutely NOTHING.

The only thing that works is the heater and the take up reel.

The main power ceramic fuse tests fine.

Everything just kind of died.

What did I do? :help

Not sure what model you have but Randy from Mutoh has posted that there is a breaker than can trip on some models when the power does something out of spec.
He said to reset you need to pull the main power plug out of the wall and let it sit dead for 15 minutes or so.
Plug it back in and see if it will post.

It is as Falcon Outdoor 62.
I had it unplugged for about half an hour, I can hear a relay or something kick in when it's plugged back in and turned on, but everything else is dead except the heater.

Check the ceramic fuse on the power supply.
It should be white with two silver ends.
My tech guy tells me that will give the symptoms you describe.

The Falcons do not have the thermo-reset fuse that the ValueJets use now.

That fuse tested good. I was told about some other fuses on the motherboard...does anyone have a schematic for the mother board. I can't seem to find one in the manual.

Check the flex cable that connects the control panel and the mainboard, make sure it is properly inserted on both ends.
