GSS116E Power Failure

Woke up this morning and the power was out on my GSS116E.  It was working fine last night when I went to bed.  I unplugged it and plugged it back in and the power light does not come on and the lights just quickly flash.  Hardware is under a lifetime warranty and chat support, but I can't get connected with anyone.  Thanks in advance for any support.

    Tried a factory reset with all LAN cables disconnected from the switch? 

    Power cycled OFF for 1 minute with out all LAN cables connected to the switch?
