(The auto mechanic could probably tell me six things he suspects from that description as to why it won't start unless all the cars he worked on always started .So yes.)
But if you mentioned to the auto mechanic that a low fuel warning light was flashing, right before the car would not start, perhaps the auto mechanic, would not have to make a list of 6 things for you to think about.
Or my xxxx is not working (oh, forgot to mention we had a lightning strike last night)
my xxx is not working (oh, forgot to tell you our power is out)
my xxx is not working (oh, forgot to tell you we had new carpet put in, and all the devices were disconnected)
my xxx is not working (oh, forgot to tell you I never set it up)
my xxx is not working (oh, forgot to tell you I spilled coffee on it yesterday)
my xxx is not working (oh, forgot to tell you I have been having problems with my cordless phone)
can't call anyone (oh, forgot to tell you, I can call everyone except for one number, or it's just incoming or outgoing or at a certain time of the day ......)
etc, etc
My point of this post, is hopefully that before a forum user presses the POST button, he or she will realize, the more information given, the probability of a helpful reply goes up.
not related to this post, but Troubleshooting at the most basic level,
check to see if your device has power
check to see if the cables are plugged in correctly
power cycle your device
