The MDDs PSU have fuses in as well. Replacing the fuse sometimes works but
usually points to something else amiss like capacitors as Deaner says.
One caveat though if you are going to attempt to fix these yourselves is to
take care inside the PSU. Even turned off and disconnected , these retain
enough zzzz's to give you a nasty jolt.
Do a google search about repairing one of these and the safety precautions
first.
