Hello! Recently noticed some rattling inside my cabinet and it appears a plastic white piece had fallen off. No idea what it is and how it impacts the cab. I'm wondering if anyone has had experience with this. The cab appears to be working fine, but I don't want to cause further damage if possible. What is this piece? How does it impact the cab? Also, the remaining part on the electronics appears to be disconnected on the left side and connected on the right.

GK 410MBE/4 4OHMS Repair Question
- Thread starter JaredW
- Start date
That printed circuit board is the cabinet's crossover. The broken component is (was) a power resistor that has burned up. It is part of the tweeter circuit and the tweeter might be toast as well.
I would reach out to Gallien-Krueger to see if they might have a replacement circuit board, especially in light of the burn damage.

Thanks! I'm currently talking with GK about the issue/parts -- thank you for explaining that better than they did!
