TX-NR609 won't power on after failed FW update

I have had my 609 for a few months and it was worked very well until today.

I attempted a firmware update using the on-board net updater. It said it would take about 60 min, so i went and got some food. When I came back the 609 showed "FLASH WRITE ER".

I looked through the manual and couldn't find anything helpful for this error, but it did say to unplug and try again... So i did, but when i tried turning the unit back on, it would not power up at all, no lights, nothing... The unit does make a click when I plug it in, but nothing else.

I attempted the hard reset, which did not solve anything.

I have looked online for this error but I cant find anything, so I am asking here for help before I call support.

Thanks
