My bad move: I disconnected the board with the power on, then attempted to reconnect it with the power on.

What I learned: That was a stupid move. After I did it and noticed my pac had refused pac-ing, I unfolded a small folded piece of paper stapled to the inside of the cab which read: "WARNING: Do not connect or disconnect this unit with the power on." Oh, crap... why didn't I read that BEFORE I did it?!

What I need: Help/advice. Where do I begin? More specifically than "it won't work anymore," what would the consequences of doing this be, and is there anything I can do? Where would you begin?

Any helpful suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

More info: Monitor comes on, as do all lights, etc. Board just doesn't seem to be putting anything out.
 
Ah, okay... I appreciate the help. I did find a blown fuse; here's hoping that's all it is. I'll replace it later this afternoon and post an update.

Thank you both for taking the time to reply.
 
Good advice. I checked them all; it was just the one. A quick trip to Lowe's and Pac is back with yet another lesson learned the hard way.

Thank you again.
