ads 910 crossoever component values

Good news and glad it was a simple fix! These are awesome speakers. Give them some power to stretch their wings!
I got mine hooked up to my SS amp, and I already hear the difference even at low volumes from the Scott LK-72, and I haven't been able to really crank it yet, wife's asleep now. Tomorrow though!
 
One of my 910 crossovers has a blown fuse (AGC 1 1/4, the most outboard one) and the tweeter doesn't sound; swapping crossovers shows the tweeter isn't the problem. None of the capacitors are shorted - thoughts on what might account for a blown fuse? Am wary of just replacing the fuse & hoping for the best...
Thanks!

When I first hooked mine up, I was like wow, then wooooow, woofers not producing sound in one of them. Found a blown fuse, replaced it and all is good.

Replaced just C3 with a cheap cap of the right value just to test and we have sound!:banana:

I will definitely put new caps and resistors. Still thinking about the coils ..

Caps and resistors are a wear item and well worth replacing as long as you've taken the effort to remove the crossover anyway. NOT replacing those items and having to do this all over again in the near future is the epitome of "penny-wise, pound-foolish". I swear, some of the guys around here that would dump untold man-hours into doing a Red Green duct tape job on a $15 toaster recoil in horror at the thought of bucking up a few coins for some new caps.
Coils are another matter. Odds are good that if you measure their inductance, they'll still be right on now and probably another 75 years from now. I'll bet dimes to donuts, except the exposed ends, the DCR and ESR remain unchanged as well. There's nothing to wear out on them. And big ones cost a fortune, even if you wind them yourself.
