simply does not turn on any more

Has anyone experienced this problem? One day it just wouldn't turn on any more. No lights..nothing. Just as if it were not plugged in.

Yes i did have this what you have to do is leave it about 5 hours or so because this might be because the fan is to hot or maybe you dropped.

there is a weird, but rare condition that a couple members have discovered
- unplug your wii for 5 hours / overnight (i hope this helps you)
- click here for details

if you are really desperate pull the battery out also
- it will reset your clock and calendar to 2999 (and maybe reset other configs)
- be sure to reset your wii confg if this fixes it
- i included a pic to find the Wii Console Button Battery
- you will need a small screwdriver to remove the battery

good luck, i hope this is helpful !
it may be a little more complicated if you are using component video cables...

i guess it wouldn't hurt to unplug it during that time, anyway.

Well it won't matter but just to be safe leave unplugged.
