I've got an HP ScanJet 4600 that wont power on. I had originally bought this on eBay and it was DOA despite sold as working. I intended to try fixing it but eventually found another one and it became a very low priority.

I've confirmed that the power adapter and Y-Cables are good, as they work with my other scanner so it's a problem internally on the unit.

If you're unfamiliar with these scanners they are one of the best arcade artwork scanners you can get because they're see-through and frameless, which means you can scan large art in sections without the parameter of the scan area physically getting in the way. This is the recommended scanner for doing things like scanning side-art on wood cabs. check out this video starting at 11:00 to see one of these in action:

In any case these are getting harder and more expensive to find so I figured I'd offer it up for free for anyone who wants to try to fix it and put it to good use instead of trashing it.
