Hey Good INFO! Although I don't know what Winstips is. I found the Kit-VZPwr info a day later from Mits and have ordered one, the IC9a0 info I'm taking out with me to the customer's home and checking. Will let you know in about a week or two if this fixes it. Thanks for the info guys! ----- Original Message ----- From: "Shoreline Electronics" <jstielau@xxxxxxxx> To: <techassist@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, September 20, 2001 8:03 AM Subject: [TechAssist] Re: Mitsubishi VS4551 - Intermittant Dead? > > Damon, > > This was in Winstips... > > 1) Power Supply Intermittent Power On > Fix : Install Pt#Kitvzpwr A.
