MFC Won't Power On...

Please help!!'
Tonight I set up my rig as usual...
Axe FX 2 straight into MFC-101...
No power to the MFC when I switched on the Axe FX.
Tried 3 different Cat 5 cables...still no power. The Axe FX 2 powers on fine
How do I know if the problem lies within the MFC cat 5 port, or the Axe FX MFC port?
Is there a way to troubleshoot that I don't know?
Any help would be greatly be appreciated...
 
Do you know somebody with an Axe II or MFC-101 ?
In that case try connecting to their unit, that would tell you which of your units is the culprit.
Also try powering on the MFC with the standard wall plug power supply to see if it powers on that way - if not you have identified the problem.
 
I do not know anyone with an Axe FX 2...I think I'm the only one in the whole New Orleans area with one....
 
Follow the advice above.
Connect the external power supply. Does it power up?
You mentioned having tried several cat5 cables. Try a 7 pin midi cable. Does it power up?
 
Have you opened up the bottom to make sure all internal cables are seated?
While you're in there, see if there is a fuse somewhere. (Not sure if there is one.)

If that doesn't work, contact support for advice.
