I'm going to wax philosophical for a moment...
Do you ever, in those quiet moments... when you are at peace and all is calm and still... can you hear God whispering quietly into your ear...?
Grantopia... Grantopia... put fuses on your bridges...!
Not that I'm telling you what to do. Just when I think about how much my house, and property costs... Also I have a pretty good imagination, so if I start to think about just how unpleasant for me and/or my family to die in a house fire - all for the want of $5 worth of fuses - then I can express without reservation that following vid1900 's advice is an easy decision for me.
Having said that: Yes, C15 on your power supply board is likely old and dried out. A replacement in the 16v-25v & 12,000µ-15000µ range you can find for the 10-20 dollar range. If that doesn't work, maybe look at the fuse clips, and see if they are tarnished.
This concludes my advice. Good luck to you
