Thanks again for all the replies....I love this site.

Yep, Formula definitely went with the best using ETA. They are still standard issue in aviation. I bought one from my local electronics vendor some time back but now ETA has raised their minimum order so gotta go through Formula. Not a big deal though.
Hey Zog, just remember if you take a spare breaker to replace the one that's bad, don't use a larger amperage breaker than is currently in that circuit. The wire gauge and the circuit breaker are a package deal. If you oversize the breaker you leave the wire vulnerable. Not trying to tell you your business just a friendly reminder since you volunteered that you weren't an electrician. I work for the local utility company.
