Tried another power socket, same. Swapped out the fuse, same. The powerpack is cold, like it's not been plugged in to trickle charge. What you think folks, duff power pack or is there a history of that model self destructing. It's only about 6 months old from brand new from Dixons so will be covered by warranty I guess, just annoying having to wait till their service lines open on Monday. Perhaps I should just go into Dixons and demand a new power pack.<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Fri, 30 Jun 2006 19:02:36 GMT https://community.sony.ie/t5/pcs-accessories/no-power/m-p/117003#M93138 jonsey120165 2006-06-30T19:02:36Z Re: No Power https://community.sony.ie/t5/pcs-accessories/no-power/m-p/117004#M93139 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Take out the battery and try again<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Sat, 01 Jul 2006 13:13:03 GMT https://community.sony.ie/t5/pcs-accessories/no-power/m-p/117004#M93139 kee-lo_ 2006-07-01T13:13:03Z Re: No Power https://community.sony.ie/t5/pcs-accessories/no-power/m-p/117005#M93140 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Already done that, thanks.<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Sun, 02 Jul 2006 10:46:45 GMT https://community.sony.ie/t5/pcs-accessories/no-power/m-p/117005#M93140 jonsey120165 2006-07-02T10:46:45Z Re: No Power https://community.sony.ie/t5/pcs-accessories/no-power/m-p/117006#M93141 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Sony also say you should hold down the power button for 5 seconds<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Sun, 02 Jul 2006 14:02:36 GMT https://community.sony.ie/t5/pcs-accessories/no-power/m-p/117006#M93141 kee-lo_ 2006-07-02T14:02:36Z Re: No Power https://community.sony.ie/t5/pcs-accessories/no-power/m-p/117008#M93142 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Thanks to all, spoke to the Sony guy on the helpline, asked me to take out battery and remove AC power.
