How am I supposed to locate a scavenge mission item with no power?

I've got a scavenge mission to find a fossil from an evacuated site. It says mining locker 11 in the Industrial Production.

The power is off... I found a degraded power regulator in an SRV like the tutorial, except it won't start the power. Nothing happens when I use it in the power building.

I've been running around for two hours looking for some random locker.

How am I supposed to use any of the panels to locate the item if there is no power and no way to restore power?
 
Holy crap, it worked that time... I swear I tried it before.

Thank you!
No problem. There is still the question of access. In alpha it often happened that even if you located your container/locker you were still missing an access level 3 and there was no way how to get it in an empty settlement.
 
I think it's weird that the degraded power regulator didn't work like it was explicitly shown in the tutorial.

I would expect that maybe a degraded power regulator would have a time limit and then the plant shuts back down as opposed to a regular one that stays on.
