Rob,

Yes, do try leaving it unplugged overnight or longer-- and with 
batteries out too.  I recall it happening to me at least once before 
that I almost gave up on my 2400  (which either had GLOD or just 
wouldn't power up, I don't remember) but I just left it for awhile, 
then plugged it in and tried it a week or two later and found that it 
worked.
