I screwed up. What an idiot I am... but life goes on and I need to fix the problem. The rest of the PSU looks completely fine. What's pictured is what I believe to be the problem. Does anyone know what needs to be replaced? As in part names? Also not too sure if the blue multicolored thing needs replaced too, or is that O.K you think? Would it just be the varistor and fuse? Any help would be greatly appreciated all!

Or is best to swap a PAL PSU with the Japanese PSU?
J Saturn model number : AD65023349 PAL Saturn model number : AD69085575

You need to replace the varistor (140VAC / 180VDC) and the fuse (exact rating is written on the board). I've done it a few times already, and it was only those components that I needed to replace.
But, I have yet to see that type of power supply. Are those the only two components damaged?

Hey Zyrobs! Thank you for your reply. I can show you further pictures if you like of the PSU? They are indeed the only affected components. The rest looks unaffected. Is the fuse normally soldered into the board?

I live in central Europe, so it is unlikely that I could repair it for you.
edit: but, I have a spare 100V PSU that would fit in your machine.

That's no problem. You have a deal. I'm a complete noob, so I must confirm. It'll definitely fit my machine? I can show you further pictures, if required? If you're 100%, without a doubt, confident it'll fit, please send me your PP address via PM and I'll get that payment send to you straight away Zyrobs. Thank you very much for your help Zyrobs!
