	If LEDs are flickering there's some power getting in, so it's not a main fuse, if you don't know your AC from your DC, it's probably a job for a pro. Thats a mixer with a seperate PSU right? first check you're using the right one (so obvious a lot of people don't think about it if the plug fits in the hole). If it is the right one and you can use a multimeter, you can check the output of the PSU. These things often have voltage regulators in them which can get fried, this could be a cheap fix for someone who knows their stuff, but it could be lots of other things as well.
	Keep pushing on, things are gonna get better.

	ok so, the psu has 18v approx with no load, it should be 17v, but apparently with no load it will be a bit higher so thats ok, inside he psu is two fuses and a transformer nothing else, using the multimeter theere is current thru the push switch but thats as far as we can get,, anyone have any more ieas? im gonna search for a wiring diagram, no one with one of these has one by any chance??? starts the search......
