PowerMac G4 Graphite Won't Start

[junkdrawer]

Hi,

My G4 was shut down and sat unused for two weeks while I was out of town. When I attempted to turn it on, nothing happened. I replaced the lithium battery, hit the reset button next to it and even replaced the power cord. None of these steps have solved my problem. There just isn't any juice, no light, no noise, nothing. What's my next step? I really need to get working again. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

So absolutely nothing happens? If the disks don't spin up it could be the power supply.

Yes, absolutely nothing happens. No light, no sound, no juice. I'm assuming it's the power supply also. After replacing the battery, resetting the CUDA, and using a new power cord, I can only assume I need a new power supply. What a pain. Any other suggestions?

It might be the power switch or its cord.

As stated in my previous posts, I have tried using a new power cord and the result was the same. How do I go about fixing the power switch?
