aaarrrrggghhh....ok, so heres the short version of the story.
Bought a prebuilt bartop MAME for my wife for Xmas (Its what ended up getting me interested in building my own fullsize and led me here)
UPS mangled it in shipping, seller was very helpful, offered to take it back and rebuild but I decided to fix it myself, and I had everything working.
Tonite while the wife was out I moved it inside to clean and wrap, decided to play one last game before wrapping, plugged it in and no video. Opened the back and sure enough a few of the main power connectors had come apart. I redid all the splices and tried to power it up but still no monitor. I checked connections and finally the fuse and found it was blown. Im really hoping it will work after a new fuse, there is no burnt smell in the cab and everything else looks right so Im crossing fingers.
The fuse appears to be a 3.15a 250v but its small and my eyes are terrible so I just need to confirm this before I run to radio shack in the morning. I have a bad feeling they wont have an odd fuse like that but its all Ive got local.
So can anyone confirm the fuse type and give me any other helpful hints and tips?
Oh, the monitor is a Wells Gardner 13" but I dont know the exact model number.
