    [Dead] MPC 4000

    Hi everyone, i need help, i have a Ricoh MPC 4000,the fuse from the power cord blow out every time I turn on the machine. Here in my country(Mauritius),the Input voltage level is 220 V to 240 V, 50 Hz/60 Hz and the power cord attached to the machine uses a 5A fuse. Is it correct to use a 5A fuse or should it be more than 5A? I've replaced the power supply unit,but with the same result,5A fuse from the power cord blown out. I saw on the Ricoh support,that the problem may be with the IH Inverter. So i unplugged the IH inverter connector and turned on the machine with the 5A fuse power cord. The machine started up but an SC 582 appears on the screen,which is the IH inverter current error at power on. The PSU is still ok, what i need to know,if the IH inverter is Defective and need to be replaced,will the machine started up with a 5A fuse power cord or a power cord with a 13A fuse?
    Thank you in advance
    Bruno.

    It has to be 13 amp. It'll blow a 5 amp fuse the second the fuser starts to warm up. You'll have to change the main PSU and the IH coil PSU as a pair.
    It's 106 miles to Chicago. We've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses.

    Hit it.
