Let the dead lie,,,

Don't even bother trying to fix it.. Lightning strikes and surges like that are funny creatures... No telling how much latent damage there is in components that might still be operational..You could find a blown line fuse, fix it, get it running and it could die in a week.

Nothing worse than trying to fix electronic systems that have been hit and grounding systems are no guarantee. I'm still dealing with latent failures on a couple of my systems that were struck almost a year ago.. One, a direct hit, the other nearby, ground surges.

Look to see if your home owners covers it, that's what it's for. Time to get a bigger set!
