1966 GE PortaColor Restoration

Hi all,

I'm in the midst of restoring a 1966 GE Portacolor and was hoping for some guidance. In replacing one of the can capacitors, I screwed up and installed one of the sections backwards. Now it's gone from mostly working to lighting the tube heaters and doing nothing else.

According to the schematic, there's a .5V fuse just before the capacitor I installed backwards. That would trip if someone did what I did, and would cause the symptoms I've seen. I see it on the tube chart, I see it listed multiple times in the schematic, but I'll be damned if I can see it in the set.

I'm including the schematic. Has anyone worked on one of these before? I'm trying to find fuse M2. Am I losing my mind or something?
