No mains power

I have a Panasonic DMR-ES30V(couldn't fine this in 'Product'. The recorder is completely dead. I have tested-out the mains lead and even switched over another lead from a working product. I have taken off the top cover, hoping the anti-surge fuse had blown. Again, this tests out ok on my test meter.
Any advice would be appreciated.

You might want to check the capacitors in the power supply. This thread has some photos and links to threads where there are capacitor replacement discussions:
