I know this is a loaded question:

I have a receiver that will not power on at all: nothing even flickers or makes a sound, dead. Does anyone know where the first place to look is. The only think I noticed was that on the board the only empty spot that seems to maybe missing something is an area that states to put in 250v fuses. Could it be missing some fuses?

Receiver is a Luxman R-3045.

Any help would be great, although I know this is a lame "rookie" question that is very open ended.

Cheers
