I've "been there" (metaphorically and literally). You'll find it's often not economical to repair a piece of old B&O gear - it could easily cost more than the piece is worth.

I don't have an extra power supply and they certainly wouldn't appear on eBay as a solo item very often. Someplace I have the instruction manual tho - if you'll give me your email I'll scan it and send it to you. I'll also email you a photo of the power supply showing the part number.
