Decided to take the plunge and order a brand new S9 today and its starting to look like a dud,
Pulled a working PSU from a S7 I had running and plugged it all in, it powered up with fans at full speed, none of the hash boards have lit up and its not coming up on the network.
Does anyone have any idea of a fix or am I going to have to try through Bitmain?
Regards

Try the reset function by putting a paperclip in the little pin hole. That can help and im sure bitmain will ask you to try it.
Also try unplugging power to the power to hash boards and power only the controller. If the controller is alive it should show up on network and give GUI access. If still no access, leave hash boards unplugged and again do the reset.
Remember each time you push the rest button hold it in 10 seconds. The red light next to the reset should start blinking. Leave miner running for at least 5 min to allow the reset firmware to be loaded and start running.
