Korg Krome does not start up

My Korg Krome does not start up anymore.
Very strange, the light around the joystick does flash in a constant rythm but the screen stays black.

Is there maybe a battery in the Krome witch has to be replaced?

One possibility is that there is a power supply fault. Consider trying a replacement power supply to see if it solves matters.

Do you mean the external power adapter?

Yes. The external power adapter. It could just be that the coaxial power connector contacts are dirty, so using a bit of switch cleaner on the contacts might resolve the issue, before purchasing a replacement power supply.

There are several potential causes of the described behaviour. A bad incoming power supply is one of them, and the cheapest to fix, so worth doing first.

Out of interest, does the rear-facing LED also flicker, in time with the joystick LEDs?

Thanks for your answer!
Yes the blue led on the rear also flashes.
It looks like the tempo is the standard 120 bpm

The power supply did give only 6 V anymore. So I ordered a new one and it is working!
Thanks for your tips.
