Am trying to revive a dead 2400c/180 in the next week or three.

As detailed on this page, among a handful of others in English, there are some dozen or more fuses in the innards of a 2400c, some of which seem particularly prone to failure. I have a power board in mine that has "dead scsi" written on it from a previous owner's surgical/ electronics work on it, which presumably signals a blown fuse. I rather suspect that the problem with my dead 2400c in general lies on the power board itself, since there is no response at all to the power on keystroke, or to anything else; hence I have recently shelled out handsomely for a new 2400c power board. We shall see how installation of that new board goes, and what joy it brings....

Given that these fuses seem to fail so often, could a failed fuse be replaced by one with a slightly higher specification? Or, going all the way, would a wire bridge rather than a fuse be anathema?

My purely amateur instincts tell me no, but there may be electronics wizards who can comment more knowledgeably.
