Wii Not powering up

Took my wii home for Christmas, was wrapped up moderately well in my suitcase as I flew home.

Plugged it in and it doesn't power up? Any suggestions?

Blown fuse?

Does the wii have an internal fuse?

Plug fuse?

You said you wrapped it up did you get it from abroad?

Good thinking batman!

Where did you buy it from? Is it using a UK standard power supply?

My German Wii stopped working because the fuse on the 2/3 pin adapter blew. Easily enough replaced - make sure you get the right one though if that's the case, not one that's meant only for things like shavers

It does seem to be a power issue, so a fuse somewhere is gone I expect. But the old mans multimeter is pretty flakey. Still, i'm pretty sure there is no power entering the Wii...

It is swiss, but the voltage is the same.
