Hi my name is Renée, I am new and I need Help

[ReneeJohn]

As I mentioned in my message title my name is Renée and I need help. I purchased a Wii three months ago and only yesterday decided to set it up, however the machine would power on. When i follow the instruction in the manual and plugged in everything a red light will come on for a 1/4 of a second and then no power. Can anyone give me some advise or do I need to return it to Nintendo.
Thanks a lot. Anxiously awaiting a response

first try a different power source, failing that, see if you can just exchange it at the store you bought it from. if that's a no-go, then you might have to call nintendo. good luck with that.
