Dead Wave

Hey all,
I have a wave that is completely dead. The batteries are ok ( I charged them and made sure they were still plugged in) and so are the fuses. All the wires I can see seem to be ok as well. But the wave will not turn on at all, I can't even switch it to push mode. It's as if the batteries aren't even there. Any ideas to what's causing this?

Drop down service panel, next to the charge socket.

Well the key switch is good and so are the e-stops and the plugs. I've checked a few different fuses, but I don't know which is number one. Where's that one located?

Check the plugs at the top of the flip down service panel where the drive/tow switch is. If they are ok then check the fuse #1 and wiring to it on service panel.

try testing and checking the key switch, might be bad.

Fact of the week
Foundling hatches are safe, anonymous drop-off points for unwanted infants, allowing parents in crisis a way to surrender a baby safely without fear of punishment, ensuring the child is rescued and cared for. The concept started in the 12th century, was abandoned in the late 19th century, then reintroduced in 1952. It has since been adopted in many countries.
