Comment on Is this soldered controller repairable by an amateur?

Technically, since they are throughhole components and nothing specific. (Fried resistor, 0,1nf capacitor and maybe a damaged thermal fuse.) The issue is that those components failed becasue of something happening and unless you find out and fix what caused this you can change those components as many times as you want they will just blow again.

Thanks, as a learning exercise I am willing to have one good go before I turn the electronics into waste, but if they blow again that may be the end of it
I’ve been given an opportunity to ask ‘genuineparts’ where I should buy parts 😉 (I’m in Australia)

I think DigiKEy and Mouser have Aussy sites where you would probably be able order the parts.
