Over the weekend my 962 supply for my Omni VI blew the ac fuse every time I turned it on. I expected that the bridge rectifier could be the problem. When I opened it up, I found that the bolt holding down the filter board was loose leaving the bridge without a heat sink. I haven't unsoldered the bridge but expect that it's the likely problem. Has anyone else experienced blown fuse problems with the 962? Also, is this a part I can but from Ten-Tec without buying an entire board? If not, does anyone know the specs for a direct replacement? Since it's a holiday weekend, there's no chance to call Ten-Tec until Tuesday.

For me, if anything every breaks around the house, it's on a holiday. I've had furnaces go out, dishwashers, stoves and any other number of appliances go out on Christmas, July 4 or Memorial Day. This must be my 2009 holiday breakdown.

Thanks for any input.
