Rifa caps are always cracked on the AB of those classics. Never bother replacing the caps myself, i leave them untouched. The main reason for a blown fuse is the Mosfet RP40 being shorted QP2 I think Using a multimeter you can check for shorts in the legs. the bridge rectifier can be...

Never tried myself, but probably not at a 100% rate. Probably will work, but the main difference will be the floppy drive, from the original auto insert to the newer manual insert, lid is not the same.

Hi, not sure to understand, those are 16v capacitors, so your best option is to buy 16 volts caps, if you can find 25 volts one, sure doesn’t hurt, but 16 ones are totally fine.

Without monitor, there is not much you can do. But in the meantime, have a look at the logic Board. The battery should be removed if any present. Look at the capacitors for traces of leaking.

Probably the Egret/Cuda chip needs to be removed and soldered back, common issue in CC and similar boards. see the other post for a Mac TV

Can also be the Egret chip or a bad trace.

I have got two PWB 100, never seen this before,

Also bad plastic (hinges)

The only issue, is the screen being smaller than the 180 or 1XX series.

Hi, hard to say, a tantalum capacitor is more prone to blow away than to be shorted. I will say, something else is shorted and you are finding shorted capacitors instead. What i will do, is remove the capacitors from the board and see if the short is still present or gone. Then you can move...

Yes about the mouse, was just about to say the same.

Yes, I agree, probably that or worse, heads stuck in the platters. Remove the cover and have a look, probably a chance to revive the drive.

I agree

The capacitors pads are ok, but the the sound chip ones are damaged, or missing altogether.

This is the kind of protection that is present in the fuse section of any PSU
