    hey guys i have a dsl here that will charge np however i can not get it to turn on any ideas?

    I have checked all of the connections to the main board and all seem to be okay and fitted correctly but no matter what i do i cant seem to get it to fire up

    F1 and F2 are okay they have metered out as still connecting

    anything else i can do that i may have missed?

    new logic board time unless you have SMT soldering equipment and want to replace the ICs one by one.
