Evesham ebox was working fine and now won't turn on. any idea's? i've changed the fuse but thats as far as my knowledge goes
The box sits in my tv stand and wasn't moved or anything dropped on it. It worked fine one day ( shutdown as normal ) and the next it's doing nothing. No lights on the front or any sounds coming from inside the box. I have changed the fuse ( the extent of my knowledge ) and still nothing. Any help would be much appreciated.

Give it the old sniff test. If you smell something unusual coming from any of the vents, then there is probably a blown component. The capacitors on the power supply are a common failure point. If you don't mind opening it up and doing a visual inspection, see if you see any small tube like parts that are bulging or perhaps broken open. Obviously, only do this with the device disconnected from power. Speaking of power, double check that it's plugged in well and that other items plugged into the same outlet get power as I have had a surge protector where a single outlet stopped working.
