The fix! I had THREE of these

The fix!

I had THREE of these boxes to die on me, each after about 6 months. I heard the capacitor blow out on the last one. I searched online and found that someone had repaired their's by replacing a blown 470uf capacitor on the power supply. I opened mine and there it was, the 470uf cap was blown out on the power supply. (This is caused by the "Capacitor Plague" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capacitor_plague)

I just replaced that cap with Radio Shack part number 272-1030 ($1.29) and it works! Tomorrow, I'll check the other two!
