Broken FC Twin, help.

Short explanation: Someone plugs a 12v power brick into my FC Twin, it dies. It will not power on with the official adaptor. Before I crack it open...Anything I should try? Does the FC twin have fuses?

Thanks in advance for any help.

It shouldn't affect it. There should be a 7805 that regulates the voltage down to an acceptable level... so you prolly just need a new 7805 in there..

That is what I was hoping... But 7805s are pretty near indestructible, right? Oh well, looks like a pretty easy job. I was hoping for a big fat fuse, like the one on an SNES.
