I tried jumping 5 v into the blanking section, as per clays guides...

Did it step by step word for word...

No change...

Now everytime i power up the machine the 2, 4 amp, 5 v logic fuses blow on power up, everytime ??? 

Got bitten twice, won't get bitten a third time !

So the 5 v doesn't travel past the fuses anymore !

Not sure if its something i did or if it inevitably was going to happen.

Thanks Humpalot for your direction, I have read Mark's guides extensively, he is a little more complex then Clay.. I only know the basics when it comes to electronics i'm afraid.. #$# #$#
