Meridian 8x24ds Indicators blinking

[flyer777]

Help.

I have a 8x24ds cabinet with a dr3 software cartridge.
The desk sets are m7310 and the 10 indicators are all blink.
When I unplug the power the system resets for about 30 minute and then shuts down and starts to blink.
I replaced the 2 1.0 farad caps in the software cartridge, however this did not solve the problem.
I need to squeeze another 3 weeks out of this unit.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

The caps only retain the memory,it would still come up just in default, sound like something is over heating in the main cabinet.

Worst case remove the main cover of the cabinet and put a fan on the main board, or buy another cabinet a dime a dozen.

Ironhorse,
I have the cabinet open.
I just noticed that the power indicator led is also blinking.

These are my best suggestions I do not do component level repair hopefully some will chime in.

I was suggesting removing the cabinet cover completly by removing the screw from the back of the KSU and just having the board exposed.

you can probably replace the cabinet just as cheap as repairing it.
