Well, half fried.  If I turn it on the output is about 65 volts. It happened one day when I tried to start a Compressor Motor with low batteries.  Bad idea.  Overload and then... meltdown.  I've opened it up and looked around inside - nothing burnt... but I am not very knowledgeable about the electronics of these things - I'd love to fix it if I knew what to remove / replace.... any ideas for troubleshooting / figuring this out?

thanks...

    Check the fuses inside, also check the MOSFET.

    There would be a bank of 2-8 MOSFETS and drivers and you need a multimeter with a transistor check function, and that may not even check mosfets properly.
