Fuel
Those of you that are on discord have probably seen me write about this 

Recently got myself a fuel and upon trying to turn it on nothing happens , no lights no fans nothing 

Jumpering the PSU makes it turn on and output all the correct voltages (suggesting its not the faulty PSU)

Connecting to the L1 via a usb to serial cable doesn't seam to work , I get no output 

Does anyone have any idea's ? 

regards

RE: Fuel
What settings are you using for the serial connection? Also, make sure you're using the L1 port in the centre of the motherboard.

What settings should I be using 

I have tried 9600 8 N 1  & the 34800 ?

RE: Fuel
The Fuel needs 38400 for the L1 port. Try this with the serial port in the centre of the motherboard.

RE: Fuel
Hello Dans34, I have the same problem in my second Fuel: PSU tested and working but no sign of life.

Did you manage to resolve the issue? I thought was something about bad signal form environment sensors locking all the workstation to prevent a breakage but I don't have the resources to even try to connect to the L1 (anyway, I would not know how to talk to her!).

Have you been able to talk to the console?
