You can file a complaint with ebay to resolve the problem if the seller is not willing to help and yes the new PSU has a larger heat sink to better dissapate the heat.

Please take pictures and post repair parts and procedures if you can.

I am glad it was just the PSU

Thanks ... Jesse

Hello, Well I talked to a old friend who did all my repairs for over 20 years. I had my new PSU installed the updated one.. And that is all it was ! YA ! He also went over the FUSION . He did this today while I waited for it !! WOW just unreal how kind some people are ... So now my FUSION is like new ... I kept the old PSU, but my tech says he thinks I will never need it . The new one is made so much better.. My tech is a support repair for AKai. And has been doing all kinds of repairs , on all makes for many years . He told me these FUSIONS are outstanding keyboards. And if you take care of them , you will have little problems . This was all great news. Again I want to thank you all for your great support !!! Regards, TotallyKenny ;D

This IS indeed good to hear. We've heard so many negatives about Fusions over the years, it is nice to hear that the Akai PSU is an improved design.

The only other Achilles heel that need sorting now is a PATA SSD - so gigging musicians can rest a little easier . . . . .

Thanks for letting us know Kenny!
