Hi all.
Looking for an understanding of just how big an issue I've caused myself.
Fitted an additional power button extension with LED. It came with a keyboard type button that I cut off and replaced with a flush panel mount illuminated NO momentary button.
The wiring diagram colours for the button matched the colours of the 4 wires in the extension cable, Power LED+, Power LED-, and the 2 wires in the Power SW connector.
I used a splitter on the MSI MAG Z790 Tomahawk Power SW, so both the extension and original case buttons would function and powered the extension button LED only.
What I missed however is that whilst the colours of the extension cable matched the wiring diagram for the replacement extension button the wires went to incorrect locations on the motherboard. I've no idea now of what has been connected to what, or where voltage has been sent to places it shouldn't have been.
I've removed all elements of the extension from the PC and reconnected the originals.
The PC will not now power on.
Thanks in advance to anyone with the knowledge to advise.
