Hi everyone, I recently got my GL2400-32 stop working. It just stop working with a mild pop sound in between playing. From what I observe the whole master section (the middle part with Aux and LR) has no battery (no LED indicator can be turned on except the Phone out). In the channel section they are having mute light on but not there is never a signal (or I do not know as the LED's does not light on). What could be the problem? Thanks all!!!
Allen and Heath trouble shooting skills?

I am going to say the power supply died. Good news in GL2400 the power supply is an easy to replace module. You could also get the external power supply for it.
Check with American Music And Sound for a replacement.

The first thing to do when one of these A&H GL2400 mixers has a problem is to open up the bottom and check that all of the ribbon cables and any other connector are properly seated. If you know what you are doing and what the voltages should be you could meter and see if they are correct.
Ribbon cable seating is worth a try and your going to have to open it up anyway.
I did have a ribbon cable issue on a 2200 but my 2400's have been solid, that said they don't get used much any more.
Here is a video I found that shows the internals of a GL2400. The video is going over how to change the pre post setting on the direct outs. The power supply is the gray rectangle module mounted to the back panel. The power supply voltages are +16, - 16, +48 and +12 for the lamp socket. The power supply cables directly solder to one of the boards in the master section, I can't remember what the color codes for the voltages on the cables are though.

As Mike and Kevin suggested chech the ribbon cables - the insulation displecement connecrtors (IDC) can fail at the joint over time.
