I found these two signals and ACLO is low (-15V) so I guess this must be the problem and
whatever blew inside the PSU is probably the reason this signal is low. DCLO is high and
the DC ON light is illuminated, but the CPU doesn't do anything presumably because
ACLO is asserted.

Can anyone suggest what else the CPU might need?
Or is it LTC?
I would check the ACLO and DCLO signals. These are both high (pulled up by
the bus terminator) for normal running, a PSU can pull them low if it detects
loss of mains or whatever. Normally that will halt the CPU
