HRV won't turn back on after servicing core and filters

Yesterday I was doing a bit of work around the house and realized that I hadn't cleaned out my HRV since last summer, so I did the usual, removed and washed the core and filters, wiped down the inside of the cabinet, etc.

When I closed the door, it didn't go into its regular test cycle, and doesn't seem to have any functionality at all aside from the cold air damper door moves a little bit if I hold down the safety shutoff lever and unplug the unit.

I have no power at any of my room controls or the main humidistat/fan controller.

The unit is a Lifebreath HRV and is about ten years old (same as the rest of the house). I didn't do anything out of the ordinary when cleaning it, so I'm kind of lost here. Any tips or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

I'll post some photos shortly.
