This is not pretty!

Well I got another 388 today and took it down to the studio and pluged it in to give it a go and of coarse it was dead.
So I took the top off and found one connector that was off its connection
put it back on and bam now we have lights but thats all. checked one of the power supply cards and it is loose but in order to put it back in the right way I need to take one of the other cards out but it wont come out no matter how hard I pull or rock it back and forth it wont come. So I have to take the whole board out to try and put it back in but thats not working either.
When I take the board off their connectors they end up losening the plastic female parts on the power supply boards and they wont go back on cause they are semi loose. I dont know what the hell Im going to do with it now except try and epoxy those connectors back down to where they are straight
so that maybe the will plug in.
Im just glad I have 2 others in one piece so I can tell how to put this mess back together.

I feel your pain, Gary!

But, that and 50 cents still won't get you a cup of coffee!

Sorry bud.

I hope you can sort it all out!

Cheers!

Thanks Jeff.

Ah its half the fun of a new toy like this.
Im not in a big hurry so that helps. It might even wait for a while till winter gets here so I have something to do then.
I new there was a chance of it having a problem when I got it anyway.

I hope you checked the fuses first, before going in-deep!

Anyway, I know you can fix it, if anyone can.

Epoxy to hold the connector in place might be the best option.
