    Mac Mini 2018 Won't turn on

    Hello All
    I was handed a 2018 Mac Mini that will not turn on. The only history that I have with it is that the customer bought it off eBay as not working.
    Pressing the power button, nothing happens. I've inspected the board and I don't see any shorts. The power supply is providing the required 12v.
    I put the Mini into DFU mode but I find that all of the menu options are greyed out like it's not really communicating. I'm using a TB4 cable which has worked on other computers for DFU.
    I haven't seen this before so just curious if anyone has any thoughts.

(See pic). macOS also doesn't boot. Apple logo comes on screen and then moves to the question mark folder. Cannot boot from USB or Recovery...
