I found a 1.5A MDX. The machine stayed on for about 8 seconds.
This could have been due to:
   o More drying time (two weeks) since the last test(s).
       (it was held outside for a few hours back then)
   o Formed capacitors? (Could they get better with each trial?)
   o The MDX classification Might mean "overly slow blow"?

> What I would do is check the capacitors and diodes for shorts.

Thank-You, will try.
