It can be replaced, but you will have to open the power supply to do it, obiously you should have it unplugged, but there's some hefty filter capacitors on the AC side that can pac…
Running it through an empty dishwasher with no soap and clean water makes a fabulous job of it, as it happens, but most likely the same magic could be worked by sticking the thing …
