Yes on the model. its a dmp-bd65 I actually have the manual. Also realize I have been insulting its integrity, media player doing more than just DVDs. As for the problem? I suspect it suffered from one of those times my former landlord's power use impacted the power on my floor. Worked fine, then stopped turning on at all. Perhaps a fuse?
Yeah it seems to be a DVD, blu-ray and verious other media player. Certainly it could have a fuse on the power supply that is blown. Or some other component on the power supply could have failed. I can find some suggestions that if a button on the front panel of the player is stuck pressed in that prevents it turning on, but I can't imagine why that would have just happened so it doesn't sound very likely. According to https://panasonic.encompass.com/model/MSCDMPBD65 there definitely is a fuse in it, and apparently they use that particular fuse in hundreds of products. So at least one of the repair places should easily be able to tell if the fuse is OK or not or if something else is causing the power problem. -- Len Sorensen
