Astron RM-50M problem

*x-post from the 'lab*
I got a free Astron 50A linear 12V supply that blows it's 120V fuse at power-up. There is nothing connected to the supply, so this is an internal problem. I know these supplies aren't the best, but it was free because of the problem...so I am willing to spend some time and money to fix it.
I looked at repeater-builder, which makes mention of a failed diode bridge rectifier in 35A model, but I don't see these in the 50A model. What else should I be looking at for the failure point?
