well the Sky+ box went pop... and lost all power
i checked the fuse in the plug, it was OK
its out of warrenty so i decided to open it up, and see if it had one of them glass fuses on the main board like some do...
it has... and it was black and looked well blown.... i looked all over and the only place i could get one was on the maplin website.
i went to the local maplins instead and bought some.
heres my question. (eventually )
the one in the Sky+ box was a slow blow 4amp... but i can only get hold of a quick blow 4amp 20mm fuse?
will a quick blow.... blow and cause further damage to the box?
i would of thought a quick blow is better than a slow blow.... but you never know.
help please ;)
