Mendelmax is working again. Looks like the z-axis endstop was plugged in wrong
and was shorting the Mega. Bed still needs leveled though.

Adam,
Thank you for taking a look at it. I will bring in additional Mega with me
tomorrow before the 3DPPGH meeting.

I took a look at it tonight and the line-in power circuit on the Arduino is
messed up. It appears to still work over USB by itself, but nothing when
plugged in via the barrel jack. I tried replacing the voltage regulator but
they just seem to overheat like they’re shorted, so it’s something else. I’m
guessing the circuit that switches between USB and line-in power. Either way
we’ll need to replace the Mega. I left it disconnected along with the mount
screws in a little tray sitting on the print bed so it’ll be quick to swap out.

Bob,
It was working for me two weeks ago. I have extra Arduino Megas, and I will
swap out the next time I'm down.
