Not good (easy to replace, but may have caused/be caused by other damage). --- End quote --- Okay I am stupid , I just noticed that the negative rail uses a different pinout VS the positive rail. So all is good. I think. As the master said @EEVBlog "Trap for Young Players .... " |

Another points to check are the supplies, especiall the +-18 V part. For the ohms part one could check the test current - if reading zero ohms, this could be from no current. There are a few repaorts about broken ohms current sources, like a bad JFET and OP-amps. The BJT cascode is also a bit suscpect. --- End quote --- U110 is not hot at all. While the instrument is powered up. |

When the Vcc and Vee of the opamps show +/-18V then the 3.2V serial zener diodes (3pin smd) got shorted (around 3-4 pairs there on the pcb). It happens when you short +/15V somewhere.. The 3.2V zeners in series with 18.2V create +/-15V for opamps.. |

input resistors : R104-R110 + R180-182 + R170-172 Checked for cracked joins , all seems good with multimeter measurement though all of them in line. |
