its hardwired to 115v po115v outlet. One evening it simply died. After some troubleshooting (ensuring it had power and ensuring the electronics were actually functional by supplying 5v via usb port) i realized the power supply must be the issue. The supply was noticably warm to the touch even though it was not powering anything.
Trying to understand what i was up against i went looking for others with similar issues and anyone who might have attempted a repair. While a few ppl have had the issue inhave found nothing in the way of an attempted repair. The only teardown pics i could find wad the FCC filing of the device.

as well as it covered in a protective resin (likely to protect it from the elements).

My question is... is there an easy way to remove this coating so i can have a look at the board underneath and possibly try to repair it?
Thanks in advance
