Logitech Z-5500 possibly fubar :(

Howdy,
My brand new Logitech Z-5500 system arrived on Wed this week so I plugged it all in like is said in the manual, turned it on and it worked fine. Yesterday I used it for a short period of time for some CoD4 and when I went to turn it on today there was no life from it. I have checked the fuse on the plug and even changed the cable to see if that made any difference but it still doesnt work. I dont have a multimeter here so I cant check the fuse in the actual system.

When I switch them on at the back on the sub which is the main power button Im supposed to see a red ring around the power button on the controller unit but it stays unlit and I cant turn it on. Has any1 else experienced a similar event? What should I do?

Regards,

Schnippzle

Will give it a go now. What amp fuse did you use? The one in my sub doesnt have any markings on it

Cool, will have a walk about tomorrow. Cheers man.

Its a 2a slow blow fuse

Will any other appliances be running these so I can quickly change the fuse to see if it is the problem? I cant think of any off the top of my head

Would changing the fuse void the warranty?

Wicked, cheers for the help guys. Gonna head out and get one of these fuses this morning.

Logitech used to state that a 4a fuse was alright to use before they got battered on the forums by EU users who had tried it and screwed their systems because the 4a fuses are just for the americans and all EU users were advised to use a 2a fuse

Woohoo!!! Mate brought a 2a fuse around and my system is up and running again. Cheers guys.
