Thermistor problem in amp

i have a problamatic thermistor in my linn powertek amp!
the amp is fine and sounds fine! BUT when its been on all day or cranked for a bit it shuts off
(not power just sound)
i called linn usa and they said it would cost $250 to get repaired----i asked how much the part is they said $15---
would you advise me to put it in my self--is this an easy job??i am sensible and carefull-----i'll be bugger'd if i'm paying $250
what would you do?????????????
its annoying having ya amp shut down every once in a while--u can turn it off and on again and itll play but in 10 mins its off again--and off till it cools down for a few hrs----
thanx joolz
