Citizen_Insane Posted March 24, 2006 Share Posted March 24, 2006 So I replaced R12 and R26 with 680 and 56k ohm 2w resistors and the LED on my control unit still won't go on. There was some pretty bad burning arround R12 but I double checked the connections arround it (and the Zener Diode) and they all seemed fine. I even custom wired the burned section thinking that it could be the PCB that was damaged. I can hear the unit power on and I can feel R12 and R26 both get REALLY hot. So hot that I can't touch them for more than a second without burning myself. Any ideas where to trouble shoot from here? Thanks. -Kai Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MD1032 Posted April 10, 2006 Share Posted April 10, 2006 How many times did you replace the fuse? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Citizen_Insane Posted April 12, 2006 Author Share Posted April 12, 2006 doh! its always the most obvious things we overlook... What are the specs on the fuse? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Citizen_Insane Posted April 12, 2006 Author Share Posted April 12, 2006 I replaced the fuse today and it didn't help. I just want to reiterate that I have power to the amp, I'm just not getting anything out. When I plug in the head unit the light does not go on (not a blown LED, I checked). I also took apart the head unit competely and found it to be in what appeared to be perfect condition. There is no head unit fuse like some were suggesting on the site. What I've done: Replaced R12 and R26 Checked Diode next to R12, was fine Rewired arround burned spots on PCB board, no result Checked head unit - appears to be fine I'm running out of ideas and I really don't want to spend $50 to have someone else fix it. I do have access to an oscilloscope through school...is that where I should go next? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Citizen_Insane Posted May 5, 2006 Author Share Posted May 5, 2006 bump, cuz I need help. If a mod could swing by, or anyone else more familiar with the electronics of this system, that'd be great. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
