Bc2000 (for the BCF2000 & BCR2000)

Hi there,
        I thought I'd post my problem in case anyone else has had it and can shed any light on it.
My BCF2000 is less than a month old and has been working great. However I turned it on tonight and there were popping sounds so I quickly turned it off. Turning back on they were still there and then the big one and now the unit is dead. It hasn't been exposed to damp and anything else so I'm wondering if it has been a common fault on batches etc. It sounded like power supply and the resulting smell is coming from around the power button.
Anyone else suffered similar recently?
Thanks a million guys.
Cheers
Patrick
