New Super Flower Leadex II 650W 80 Plus Gold Dead?

Hi. Putting together my new rig with the Super Flower Leadex II 650W 80 Plus Gold power supply I got from OcUK last week. Just checking, when it's plugged into the mains, I should at least be able to get the LEDs working? It seems dead as a dodo - no lights anywhere, fan movement or lights on the mobo when connected.

Hi, yeah just wanted to check if I should be seeing any signs of life with just it plugged into the mains and nothing else. I had it connected originally to the 24 pin, 8 pin, CPU fans connected - no GPU in the board yet or front panels attached. There were no lights on the board or anything on the PSU to indicate it was alive. On a Youtube vid I saw, the LED switch should light up the connector blocks on the back of the PSU and I'm not getting that.

The LED button is switched to on as well as the power switch. Tried a separate power cable lead too - no dice.

Thanks for the replies. You were all correct.

Didn't bother with the paperclip test, just went ahead with the build and the PSU is working fine.
