I have a broken KNC Titan. One of the cubes had melted power connector, and because of that the connector was removed. So, I connected power cable to the wrong pins, and I think the entire machine was fried (cubes and controller). I'm currently planning to sell it.
Do you think it can be fixed, and how much would the repairing cost? I assume shipping is to US?

e. I have also second fried controller (I guess FPGA, because of the blinking of the bright light).

Hm. I assume the first controller was blown out as well (no proper lights when you plug it in without the cubes?) At the very least you blew up the cube and controller, I wonder if it spread to the other drivers. I'd have to take a look at the controller, the cube you reversed, and one of the other cubes to make a determination.

This is also a problem with people who pull the plastic off the power connector and run the pins bare. Works, but if you ever put the plug on so that iit's only on the top three then you blow everything up. Have it fixed properly.

Yes, the other controller blinks similarly it broke earlier.
I guess all the cubes are done. When I tried them with a working controller, the controller didn't boot correctly. I got light to only one led (out of 3) and blinking 'bright light'.
