    Have repined j1 & j2 and reflowed solder on the pins still no luck

    Probably need to repin all connectors on rectifier board as well as replace connectors and header pins if needed.

    There's also GI bus lines on J3 for the backbox, which you said you also lost - in fact, both GI bus and returns on J3. You'll want to repin that one as well. If you are wiggling connectors, suspect those but also any other loose or broken connections somewhere on the rectifier board. Fuse holder F5, check for cracked holder or cracked cold solder on the holder itself. Pull the fuse itself out and replace it, sometimes the end caps separate from the glass - best just to replace it anyway.

    J3 is next, checked all the jumper wires they are all good

    Problem solved it was the end cap that had separated from the glass on f5 fuse, thanks wayout440 and pinkid for helping out.
    Just want to make sure is the 20 amp fuse a fast or slo-blow.
