    If you have 120v supply to them, and there is no fuse blown in the unit, I'm not sure if there is a fuse in that unit. It could very well be fried. Transformers/electronics don't do well with extreme or low voltage issues.

    Yes... but if there are any electronics on that board, the whole thing may be gone. As @Dennis so cheerfully noted, modern electronics do not play well with power surges... hence surge arrestors.

    I'd still pop one in to see if it worked. But I agree, if both popped, the whole unit is probably toast.
