Issues with VT420 (was Re: LK401 Keyboard)

[Aaron Jackson]

The terminal arrived today but unfortunately it doesn't power
on. I've checked the fuse and continuity of the cable, fiddled with the
contrast, etc. It doesn't do anything, not even a self test. The
terminal is completely silent, not even a transformer humming.

I have contacted the seller, but if anyone has any suggestions about
what might be the issue, please let me know.

Thanks all,

Aaron
