Day One Problems

[17 2112 Z JUL 3306]Day one and already having problems. The communication systems are fried, thrusters are stuck in a warmup loop and nothing else will boot. Good thing I decided not to put my life support into hibernation mode before racking out, the thinner air would make it difficult to breathe and think.
I cannot even expect help, with none of the Woomera's systems online, she is running cold. Even if someone were to miraculously drop out of supercruise near us, we would not even appear on their sensors. We are on our own.
The question now is where do I start? Half split rule says in the middle, but I have got multiple failures here.
I have got plenty of fuel so that is not a problem, and the power plant seems to be humming along nicely. I guess my pre-flight checks were not expansive enough.
I am going to shut the thrusters down again and start repairs with the communication system. It seems to be the easiest, change the communication control unit, and see if we can get hold of someone that can give advice for the rest of it.
