Please help!!! >> It sounda like you may have a partial short from the main power supply cable to ground. If it was a better connection ti ground it would draw much mor than 2 AMPs, but still, 2 AMPs is quite a lot. Check this wire carefully, especiall where it may cross a sharp sheet metal edge that could have cut through the insulation. Good luck, Jim Davis
