Check mouser.com they should have a cross for that part #c4511. But be warned if you really don't know what you are doing you could make matters worse.

Well I have a service manual in PDF Format if you need it.

This is not the Owners Manual it is the one the Techs use to fix it with.

I can not post PDF Here but I can Put up a Schematic if you like.

What Resistors and Mosfets Get the numbers on the board.

Q38, Q41, Q42, Q45 are all the same.

I can tell you the resistor values if you give me the numbers on the board.

They will begin with R Like R23 for example.

Here is the Datasheet for the Mosfet.

These Devices are Static sensitive and you must wear some sort of Ground Strap when replacing them, You must also use a Grounded Soldering Iron. And wrap wire around the Pins to short them out before Installing them. Then remove the wire after it is installed.
