Is this the end?

Bought in late 2017. Has been on the wall since that date (no moves, falls, etc.) and was working fine yesterday. Now, after a few reset attempts, I just get this when I plug it in. Is this the end?

 

 

  • Its not a good sign. 

    Why were you resetting it? 

    Was it having an issue that was causing you to reset it? 

    Got a different power supply sitting around that might match? It needs to have the exact same voltage and polarity but can have more amps. You just need at least the same amps.

      I was afraid it was dead, but you were right! I had been using a third party adapter (in order to flush mount the Meural with an in-wall outlet behind it). It's been fine for years but apparently it's just the adapter as switching back to the original Meural power supply brought it back to life. Thank you!

        Glad it was something simple and you weren't out $$!

        You can mark is solved so others aren't trying to fix it plus it might help others with your issue.
