Did someone hook it up backwards?
Are you using the correct amp of fuse?
Is the power cord one piece, or a patchwork of wires?
And are you hooking it up mobile or as a base? If your using a powersupply, that may be the trouble.
Just few things to check, hope it helps.

Have a look inside the rig to see if there is a burnt out diode near wher the power leads are soldered to the board if there is you will need to have it replaced .
Hope this helps and you get it up and running.
