> 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.
