MK3 won't power on

so last night the printer was finalizing and when he got to 99%, the printer turned off. Trying to power back on fails. No lights anywhere. My personal opinion is that the power supply unit has failed. Does anyone else have any experience that might shed some light on the problem?

Re: MK3 won't power on

Do you have a multimeter to get some readings from the PSU?

ultimately that was going to be my next check. It's not a simple thing for me to do it as I'm paralyzed. Actually maybe that's a good thing... That power supply is rated at 24 V. =)

Re: MK3 won't power on

Can you see any damage through the holes of the PS? The thread below talks about many issues. Are you on 110v power in the U.S. ? There are other posts if you search for "power supply failure". Additionally some people have purchased replacement Meanwell 350's and other options.

I went ahead and ordered a new power supply. We are not getting any voltage on the multimeter. I just got this printer six weeks ago
