Hi and welcome to JustAnswer,

Thank you for the question and your patience. Should you still need assistance for information purposes only...

Initially (to my recollection), there is a thermistor between the fuse and the transformer. This serves as a thermal fuse and as it implies if it is open, then just like a blown fuse, the Fender would be completely/electrically dead.

A multimeter / continuity tester would be needed to test the thermistor de-soldered/out-of-circuit. Normally, it would test very low Ω.

Please post back how things turned up and/or should you need additional information.

The rating of "I expected more" is duly noted.

Have you at least checked for the continuity/resistance of the above described thermistor?

Please consider a DIY (do-it-yourself) repair if and only if comfortable working with electronic components & circuitry, use of a DVM/VOM, a soldering iron/station and safe practices with electrically powered devices.
