Well, i spent some time fiddling today. Replaced the fuse. Took some readings at the secondary of the trafo:
AC1 and CT: 106mv
AC2 and CT: 162mv
AC1 and AC2: 182mv
For some reason, when i touch just one of the leads from the multimeter to the board, it jumps up to like 200mv and i don't know why. I get the feeling i am doing something wrong with the multimeter.
When i measure across the outputs and ground, i get no reading, DC and i get around 30mV AC. LED 1 lights up but two does not. I have no idea whats going on. Thanks.
Oh, by the way. I have spent some time inspecting the board too. Its... well its not my best work by any stretch haha. But it isn't that bad... i would think it should still work. Nothing appears to be bridged or broken. Theres a few minor scratches and burns on the back of the board, but again, nothing major... the pads are still intact and everything. Bottom line is i don't see anything that would be causing a short or open circuit.
millivolts is nothing. That's almost zero volts.
You probably have your PSU wired incorrectly to the transformer/fuse/switch.
Did you follow the instruction guide? Do you have a photo of the project with all the wires laid clearly showing where it goes?

Post a pic so I can see. You probably have cold solder or incomplete solder. You need to work your way and find out where the voltage disappears.
