U have powered the unit after long storage, then...
u have to physically inspect the unit(s) for any bugs' outputs(liquid or solids) on the pcbs. These tend to conduct and the circuits will misbehave. The tracks will corrode and open. Check for green corrosion on the tracks.
If the storage was at considerably higher humidity levels/place, then u have to use a hot air blower and heat the pcbs with the power chord disconnected. Wait for it to cool down and then test.
Electrolytic capacitors on long storage tend to dry and fail on sudden power-up. U couldn't have avoided this anyhow.
