However, one interesting thing I noticed is now, when I try to test continuity over the F2 fuse clips after removing the fuse, it no longer shows it as continuous.

Mine has been very busy, and as a result, no time to work on the Robotron.

Hopefully, I will get a chance to work on it tomorrow. I have pulled the power PCB and I am going to try to resolder the connections for the power harness. I have heard that this can do wonders, and truth be told, the solder joints on the board look none too good right now.
