Yes, my guess would be a PSU issue too.
They are a bit of a pain to disassemble but the PSU is a self contained unit
and relatively easy to work on.

The firmware in a CP/M machine I'd much simpler then you are probably
used
to, but I would think you'd want to get a boot disk in there as soon as
you
can after it's turned on. It may not boot up after it's tried & couldn't
find one.
