Re: LAN adapter down on our 510 -- Is there a way to tell whether it's the card, the FSIOP book, or the whole damn sidecar?

I wrote:
We had a power failure, long enough to drain one UPS dry. In order to conserve battery power on the one our 510 is on, we did a normal PWRDWNSYS on the 510.
When it came back up, the LAN interface (a 2838 card in a 6617 book, in a "sidecar") refused to come up.

I've tried re-seating the 6617 FSIOP book; no joy.
I've tried re-seating both the 6617 and the 2838; no joy.
I've tried re-seating everything connecting the main cabinet to the sidecar.

The FSIOP and LAN adapter appear to be the only active components in the sidecar; both show up in WRKHDWRSC as "Not detected."

Is there a way to tell whether it's the card, the book, or the whole sidecar?
