DV Little Mark won't turn on. Advice on repairing it?

[Wrogsprit]

I got it early in the lockdown. One day it just stopped working. I don't know much about amps and don't trust myself to fix it.

Anyone know how much it would cost to get it fixed at a shop? I had a friend who works in electronics tell me to check the fuse, but even that's something I've never done before.

Because it could be so many things, only a free inspection at the repairman's bench will give you your answer. And you can learn something about the checklist of trouble shooting and maybe even tips about the longevity of your amp.
Find a good amp tech and make them your friend. Your amp will be happy you did.
It shouldn't cost you anything for a tech to check the obvious things. And anything more than that, you're in the right place.

Just to be clear, no nothing, right? No glow, no jiggle in the power cord, no looseness in the switch?
Time to see the doctor.
Good luck!

Yep. The leds don't turn on. I've tried to unplug/replug the power cord and nothing happens. The switches feel normal.

From the manual:

DV Mark DV Little Jazz / DV Jazz 12 / DV Jazz 212 combos feature a 120V/240V Voltage Selector to use the amp in countries with different voltages, so make sure the switch on the rear panel is on the correct voltage before connecting it to the AC power, and the fuse is the right value for that voltage.

The voltage selector is a round switch just above the power switch. Make sure it’s fully switched to the correct voltage for your country. The fuse holder is located under the power cord connection on the back of the amp. You can open the holder to inspect/replace the fuse. After checking those two things, if it isn’t powering on, see a technician.

Here is an example of how to check the fuse:

The video is not your amp, but the steps are the same.

What’s the best price for a Little Jazz these days?

It uses a very common power cord. I'd strongly suggest trying another. Desktop computers often use the same one, so you may already have one. If you have a meter you can check the voltage.

Checking the voltage switch and fuse is an excellent idea.

As silly as it sounds, plug it into another outlet or check to be sure the one you’re using hasn’t lost power for some reason.

By some miracle it turned on just now! Hope I don't jinx myself.

Nice. Hoping it got sorted (maybe the cord wasn’t fully seated or something like that).

Score! Good luck with keeping things running and music flowing. If it should happen again though, run through all the troubleshooting and note the steps to the tech. Intermittent problems are the worse because they always seem to go away at the tech's bench. Sometimes a solder connection comes just the slightest bit wonky and there is no in between. It's dead in the water.
Best of luck and I'm glad you're back in business!
