I have a 16 channel controller with two power cords. I just lost power to one side. Why? PDF Print
There are many things to check.
  1. Make sure that you have not exceeded the power rating for the controller. This will depend in the power cord you have in use, and the fuse installed. The most common configuration would yield a 15amp limit. I suspect that if you go higher than that, you understand the AWG and fuses needed to obtain a higher rating. If you are unsure, seek assistance! Do not do this on your own.
  2. Are you connected to a GFI (GFCI) circuit? If so, then it's entirely possible that something connected to the controller has gotten wet, and the GFI is detecting current leakage. The GFI will continue to trip until this is corrected.
