Where is the Fuse on Crush 20 Amp ?

Post by florent_g » Sat Jul 01, 2017 11:17 am

Hello,

A stupid guy swithed my amp to 110v instead of 220v. It does not power on anymore. I dismounted it but I cannot find any fuse. Somebody can help ? I attached a picture of it in this post.

Regards
Florent

Have you checked the owner's manual?

You were right sooner, it was explained in the owner 's manual ... thanks !
In fact the fuse is inside the power plug. And there is a spare part. So my amp powered on again, but there was a very bad noise (and it smelled like something burnt). So I think is is definitively KO :-(

KO is almost inevitable. Everything would have got double the expected voltage and it isn't surprising something burnt.

That guy owes you a new amp - simple as that! :evil:

Hard to believe that switch isn't located inside the amp where idiots can't get to it.

Yeah, well there is a whole new generation of idiots these days taking things to whole new depths. Time was when that sort of thing wasn't needed unless you let very young kids play with your gear... :roll:
