Green light on power supply - but nothing else

Hi.  I have an i3 MK2.  I've been printing from it for over a year after buying it used.  I printed a model over night and it failed to stick and ended up with a crap ton of melted filament all over the extruder.  When I tried taking it off, the LCD looked all screwy for a moment, and then nothing.  Now, when I power it on, I see a green light in the power supply but that's it.   I bought a new extruder and assembled it thinking that would fix the issue - but it didnt.  I've checked the fuse by the power supply, and the 3 fuses in the board and they're all good.  What could this be?

I would suggest you contact support as you may have shorted out something and, I'm sorry to say,  done some permanent damage to an electrical part like the main circuit board!

I did this back when I first started, I tried to clean the hotend with a metal brush and shorted out the heater or thermistor cartridge but was lucky as it just blew the fuse.  Lesson learnt.

 Never fiddle with the power turned on!
