Try unplugging the machine from the wall, leave it unplugged then press the power button. that should discharge any remaining power in the PSU.

Then plug it back in and see what happens. I had an old machine that i sometimes had to unplug discharge then plug back in.

Have a look inside the case, and double check that the connectors for the power switch are still seated firmly on the bord.
