Power Issue When Powering On My Yamaha Bbt500h Bass Head

last night, my amp turned on, but I wasn't getting any sound and then I turned it off and back on, but then no power light indicators appears. No lights, no power, nothing.   when I unplug the power adapter and plug back in, it makes the sound like it's powering on, but no lights or sound.   Is there a fuse? This head has always rocked, and I've never had any issues. I was at a show and the sound guy sucked. He ran a line out from the back, but there's only one possible slot and it's a line out
