Default Re: Snap server 2200 will not turn on

Northwestern carries some parts but none for the 2200. I do play with them a lot, but do not do board repair. I would be gald to check the unit out for you.

Some units are hard to start. I don't know if it the switch or the chip that controls the startup. I have a 1100 here right now, that is like that. It want start for days the next time it start up.

I do know is that startup does put a strain on the power supply. Close to 6 amp for the first 10 sec. Try starting it up with just one drive. It's possiable a HD is killing the 12v. If I recall if you try to start with NO drives it will give you and error code (led patteren).
