Got the dreaded "FC" code tonight. So far tried pulling FP connector, no change. Pulled CP connector and error changes to "FA". What's next?

Thanks,

I think I found the problem, shorted HOT. Ordering a couple from a 100% positive eBayer who has sold several before. Seems the only place these can be found any more.
