My PM has started blowing the fuse at F9 on the power board. This fuse powers the magic wand magnets. Currently the wand coils will magnetise and levitate 2 or 3 balls and then the fuse pops. If anyone has any ideas what could be the issue i would really appreciate it. Ive checked the coils and they seem fine and from what i can tell the transistor driving the coils is fine as well.

Thanks,
James

Yes, slow-blow 4A fuses

Replced the transistor and the fuse still blows while carrying the ball down the wand. Retested the coils and theyre both coming out at 12ohms. Then i tested each diode across both of the coils with one leg out of circuit and one is testing at 690 and the other at 710. I reverse the DMM leads and both diodes read 1. Im using a super cheap backup multimeter at the moment so im unsure about the readings.

Whats your thoughts?

Took the wand assembly out of the game and gave it a good clean and look over, replaced both coil diodes and shes now working perfectly again!
