Even the new ones are questionable so I recently found out. CP failed. Checked voltage coming off the power supply & it was good, but it wouldn't boot. For kicks & giggles I shook it & from inside I could hear something rattling around. Changed the power supply & all was good.
May not be YOUR problem, but it might.

Lights will go off for a few minutes as was suggested before. You have to be patient and wait 7.5 minutes or more.

make sure that the the serial cable has the correct hand shake. I think you shouldn't use a straight DB9 cable. I had it happen to me when I tried to assign a domain name to the calpilot. I had to cage the ip setup to make it work. Check the manual for the correct pinout for the serial cable.

Thank you Mikeq and all for your comment. I agree with you, mikeq but don't know exactly how to check pin out of my serial cable. I refereed the manual and said 1 no connection, 2 RX, 3 TX, 4 no connection, 5 ground, 6-9 no connection. Can I configure pin out of a serial cable?

As long as you have a good normal serial cable (you bought one at computer store - not hand-made) then it should be just fine. Then if needed you can just put a null adaptor on it. Try it with or without the null.
If you have tried everything that has been suggested, it may just be a bad unit.
One final thing:
Unplug the cable from the A jack and plug in a phone just to make sure a phone works ON THAT Cable.
