    In the middle of a run – very small part – it just died. LEDs turned off, fan still running. I can connect CoolTerm, but no response. The little coil near the reset button is HOT to the touch. Resetting does nothing.

    I guess there’s really nothing I can do….?

    The fan runs from it’s own dc regulator.
    Other components run from a cascade of regulators at various voltages.
    The hot inductor is at the the top of that cascade – some device failed and the regulator is delivering too much current into a short.

    Not much you can practically do…
