Bought a plug cord to connect to the adapter cord that was an EU plug instead of the UK plug. Now the machine turns on! I guess it was a blown UK-plug fuse.

The control works. . . .sometimes. I am unsure why it can turn on sometimes, but then not receive any other signals--So I can eventually coax it to turn on but have to do the same level of work to coax it to adjust the settings.
