A couple of quick notes:

1. In Step 3, you lift the cover first from the opposite end shown.

2. Before assuming the problem is the power supply, try replacing the CR2032 3V lithium battery found in the photo for Step 6. If the battery has died, it can cause the unit not to power up. Replacing it is easier and cheaper than a new power supply. :-)

I think my battery is dead and your note says step 6 shows the battery. I don't see it?

Good advice, that is the easiest thing to check in the process described.

Nevertheless, I'm afraid it was not my case since I had checked the power supply with the tester and it had given no signs of life. Thanks for sharing your experience!

Thanks for the guide. Once you open the device it’s kind of self explanatory but I was glad to find this tutorial to know that the replacement was possible. In my case, my power board was fried (and I mean, fried. The fuse blew in the house with an awful smell coming from the ATV. When I opened it the inside of the power board was a black mess). I didn’t see the link with the airport card but I guess this was steps for another tutorial.

My problem with my apple tv first generation is that it will not power up. When I do, an amber I get am amber light that blinks a couple of times and then shuts down. If I wait a couple of minutes and power it up again, the same thing happens. Is this an indication that the power supply needs to be replace or could it be something else?
