After a blackout, I can't get my Helios4 board to start.

Hello, I am experiencing a critical issue with my Helios4 board from Kovol after a recent power outage. When I power on the device, the fans start spinning, but none of the LEDs illuminate at all. This includes the power LED and any activity LEDs.

 

Anybody can help me?.

 

I thought it might be the power supply, but I can't find where I could buy it. Does anyone know where to find it?

Thank you very much.

My board have a UART1 (via onboard Micro-USB converter) and dont connect...... with $ sudo picocom -b 115200 /dev/ttyUSB0

 

@Werner Can you think of any other option? Thanks for answering and for your time.

Try with a fresh image on sdcard. If there are SPI or eMMC and a way to disable them hardware-wise (I don't know this board) disable those. Check if it boots.

 

If there is no output at all with the fresh image the board might be damaged.

@Werner thanks for your time.

 

I found the solution in this post:

I'll never be able to say it, but this community is the best I've ever seen.
I want to thank you because once again, I couldn't have solved the problem without it.

Thanks @djurny@Igor and the all the people of this post.
