Andonso, also try disconnecting the red and black wire from the rectifier and check ohms between them (with the power off of course ;))
00.1 - 00.2 ohms
I'm finding continuity between the oppoisit side of hot size of the fuse (connected to AC black hot) and the lower left white wire on the rectifier.
Also continuity exists between the upper right white wire and the white (neutral) AC input.
The red wire on the rectifier has some sort of coninuit to the three large capaciters.
I will test later by pulling the red and black wires as I'm down to my last fuse.
After removing the bridge rectifier I found a part number GBPC2504
found a GBPC2504 on Digikey
gbpc2504 rectifier
And other brands

Those ohms don’t look so good at nearly 0. I’m thinking something is shorted on the DC side. You can test the rectifier with diode mode on your meter. Disconnect all of the wires and then between any 2 adjacent pins you should get near zero ohms with the leads one direction and infinity with them the other way.
