So it finally happened to me.

I was reloading the carputer because I got a new mobo and cpu. I had just finished windows updates and installing all of my software and my Lilliput shut off by itself. I didn't touch it or anything, it just shut off. I checked to see if it was too hot or anything but it was just warm. Nothing out of the ordinary I don't think. It haven't been able to turn it back on at all. Npt with the button or with the remote. I have checked some points on the board and it has power. My question for the Lilliput experts is what else can I check? What component(s) can I test and what values should I be looking for. I am no electrical guru but not a dummy either and I have a dmm. I'd hate to have to send it in to be fixed when I was ready to put it back into my truck. Does Armen fix this kind of thing if I can't find the problem myself. I can't send it to Hong Kong since I have done Armen's in-dash mod to it. Thanks in advance for any help.

Okay, so nobody has an answer. Can somebody at least tell me if Armen fixes this kind of thing?

try a different power adapter, maybe that one blew, try the egg in your car

No power adapter. I am running it off my power supply and have already taken my meter to my board and the power is there. I'm just not sure what else to check on the board.

why dont you just check it with a different power source? it doesnt hurt to try! use the egg with dc or the ac wall adapter. you never know!

I appreciate the suggestion but what good would that do me as the way it is setup right now is how it is going in the car. If it doesn't work the way it has been working for months and the way it will be running in the car then it needs to be fixed. My power supply is giving me 12.1 volts at the board.

there is a ribbon cable inside that runs to you're buttons if that is not exactly right is doesn't turn on, open it (carefully) you better do it inside reattach that cable (its the small ribbon cable NOT the one that goes to you're lcd panel you better not touch that. just reattach the otherone and try it out if it doesn;t work try to put is a bit to the left or right (there is a bit room to the left and right).
