Went thru a storm. 5A fuse blown. Diodes all tested OK, Reg IC tested
OK. Installed another fuse,plugged in, instantly blew.
After overlooking the cause awhile, I finally found it:
The main filter capacitor, 680 mfd@250V was dead shorted!
Replaced it,fuse, unit now working good.
Never had one to do that.
