Xpantastic!

Hi Mati,

Don't panic! There is a fuse inside the Xpander. If you pop 
the lid, you'll see it on the power supply board.

I have some photos of the PSU board in mine, for what it's 
worth: http://xpander.geek.nz/my-xpander-psu.html

The PSUs were never the highest-quality part of an Oberheim 
synth, from what I can gather. If it isn't the fuse, it 
might just be a blown rectifier diode or something similar. 
If you can read a schematic and operate a multimeter, you 
should be able to track down the problem.

Good luck!
