More x.spot issues

I have another x.spot that keeps blowing one of the motor supply fuses. The fixture keeps running (lamp stays on and pan/tilt still works) but none of the internal functions seem to work (at least the dimmer doesn't) -- It also comes up on the display N1/N2/N3.

What could be causing this? It ran for like 2 weeks no problem, blew once, then fine for a while, yet blew twice today. :aargh4:

I don't know that shorting to the other fuse would cause it to blow,both fuses have the same voltage on them.
It would be more likely that it shorted to the cover that goes over that part of the fixture. I have seen that happen once before, that cover does get pretty close to the fuses, and if the fuse holders are bent, you never know.

And you are correct, the other fuse does power the 2 3 phase boards, the CPU board and the Display board.
