The 4400/4200/4500/15000 etc are notorious for the power button going bad. What most often happens is the button gets pressed too hard and the little switch seperates from the circuit board it is soldered to.

The switch looks okay from a visual inspection. I applied light pressure, and the switch doesn't appear to move.
And thinking back to the problem that first brought me to this forum, I recall trying to use the power button to shut the unit down, and it didn't work. Since I couldn't get into the unit anyways, I just pulled the plug to shut it down. And it came back up once the power was restored (back up meaning it would boot into
something).
Which brings be back to the power switch. The only way that I know of to confirm if it's the switch or something else is to swap in a known-good switch/led assembly. Any pointers on where I can find one?
Thanks,
