It blew it's C33 capacitor. The web is still pretty rich with information on the old plus and it appears that a comprehensive program of capacitor renewal is required. Is there a sort of acknowledged outlet in NZ for this sort of electronica?
As Tez mentioned Jaycar is normally pretty good, and for those hard to find caps, I've used RS Online - the only problem with RS is that they normally have minimum purchase quantities of 5 - but otherwise seem quite good.
Also, heres a link to a really good repair guide for Mac 128/512/Plus computers -
