Vintage Synth Repair

OK, I just plugged in the supply on my workbench and tested the pins. I also checked and tested all of the traces and found no cold joints or cracks in the PCB. Just to be safe I reflowed all of the joints and cleaned up the board to no avail. Anyway, these are the voltages I should be getting, and what I AM getting. There is literally NO power leaving the PSU.

Pin 1+2 should be 5V, I get 0V
Pin 2+3 are ground
Pin 5 is 0V
Pin 6 should be +15V, I get 0V

What should I do next? I'm not too used to working on power supplies, so any direction is a good direction.

Thanks!
Mark

I got a recent Dell supply from one of their mini DeskTops for $5.  It's only 15"x5"x2" in size.  It puts out +5, + and - 12V, +3.3v regulated.  For a PC supply it's unusual in that it works without any minimum load.  Usually PC power supplies need about 0.5 amp load on their +5V line in order to operate correctly.
