When I bought the amp back in 06', I decide to separate the amplifier from the speaker cabinet. This allowed me to hook up different speakers to my amp. I created a small size, wooden box for the amplifier with a instrument connector and a on/off switch (to switch to other speakers if i wanted to) that was on the surface of the box. All was working fine until one day left it on while doing some chores. When I came back to have some Jamming Time no sound was coming out of the speaker. I suddenly realized that the audio cable plugged into the amp box was half way plugged in. "The fuse must have blown due to the circuit shortage," I thought to myself. And surely enough when I opened it the fuse was fried. But something else was also blown out. This black,flat and round sort of thing was cracked about half way.
Specifics:
- Has a Ceramic cover.
-Reads: VEI 010--- (The rest was blown to bits)
-Could be a: Resistor, Thermistor, Posistor, Varistor, etc. (I dont know)
Location within the amp:
-It was located between the Black Cable AC input and the fuse holder.
Location within Schematics:
-All I could get was (NET 00098).
Can Anyone Identify it?
Thank you.......
P.S- I touched it and it shocked me so.....ahhh.
