You've done all what you should have done. I presume it is plugged in. One thing to do is to run your knuckle across the monitor when it is supposed to be on and see if there is any static ? this would indicate that the monitor is getting power. IF you are not getting power to the monitor I would check the fuses.

If you are getting power and since you have just installed this in your home. You might want to make sure the MPU board is seated well (do this with the power off). It is also possible that the video cable between the electronics and the monitor has come loose. It could still be a fuse as there are generally several.

Does anything light up? Your power cord may also have a plug at the machine end (inside it) that may have become unplugged- pull out the hopper and check to see if the power cord is soldered on or is a plug in type- and make sure it is seated plugged in. If it is soldered on, make sure all the wires are still soldered; Obviously, check the 110v fuse with a continuity meter (looking at it will not be sufficient as you cannot alway see breaks) In fact, check all the fuses with a meter for continuity. also- does the wall plug or strip you are plugging it into have power? Plug a light into it to make sure. If you do all of this and still no power- well, you may have a bad power supply or bad MPU.- but usually something lights up unless you have a clean 110v break somewhere, check the obvious first.
The transformer may also be suspect.
