One of my Eris 5 blows the fuse as soon as it's turned on. From what I've read, this seems to be a common problem. What's the fix ?

Hi, my Eris e8 blowed fuse like you, turned out it's a ceramic capacitor .1uF - 100V  that burned out, The ceramic shrank so much from the heat that the two poles inside touched toguether, creating a shortage. I need to replace it. What's strange though, in my other Eris e8, it's a diffrent circuit board and have .1uF - 400V ceramic capacitor in it. The part cost almost nothing if you can solder it by yourself.
