I always first suspect moving parts. Disconnect power cord. Turn the rear panel power switch button so that the slot is horizontal. Can the button traverse at least 1/8 inch? Remove the cover. Remove the plastic actuator mechanism for the reset and programmer switches. Do those switches have a click detent when you press them? Install cover but do not install plastic actuator.
