Joe P,

Thanks, I have passed that info on to the MB repair folks.
I have basically told them , look, I went to you, told you the problem(no power). Nearly two weeks later they call me, tell me it is going to cost $1900.00, and in the same breath they say they haven't fixed the problem, that when I get it home, shut it off and try to restart it, I will again have no power. Wow that made me mad. I hope your idea works. Thanks again.
