Mackie SWA1801's Voltage Question

[mellinger]

Hi,

I'm hoping someone might be able to help. I have a set of 2 Mackie SWA1801's that are currently not working. We had them stored for a while, and now when I try to plug them in, nothing is happening.

I live in South Korea, but these are American versions SWA1801's. So what I think happened is that someone tried to plug it in with a normal plug into the 220V here and they are 110V version subwoofers.

Is it just a matter of replacing a fuse or are these things shot now if they were plugged into the wrong voltage? If it is a fuse, where do I find the fuse or how can I tell if indeed these were plugged in at some time into the wrong voltage?

Thanks so much!!

Mike

Hi Mike, you probably know this but here is a link to the manual:
www.mackie.com/products/swa1801z/pdf/SWA1801z_OM.pdf
It does state that it has an internal fuse but is not user replaceable, but if they are out of warranty and you or someone else with the right skills wants to do it, it is probably a soldered in fuse.
Also here is the link to contact your distributor, which has an email address for support.
