I don't have the ability to test the FICMs, but as I understand it there is a common problem with them cracking the solder joints. I have some pictures somewhere of the components that are having the problem... just can't seem to find them right now. As soon as I locate them, I'll post them.
In the mean time, if you open the FICM up they are very easy to spot. Next to the high current connecting posts, there are 4 wirewound, current limiting resistors laying right next to each other. They are brown and are bigger than any of the other resistors. These develop solder fractures and result in decreased voltage output. In many cases, resoldering these will bring the FICM back to life. Again, I'll post pics as soon as I find where I put them. Take care.
