Good day all! I have been chasing my tail for 2 days over this issue and can't seem to get anywhere. |O Basically, the positive rails in the power supply are good but the regulated negative side is no good. All the semi-conductors test OK out of circuit in my DCA75 tester. I replaced the few electro caps, no difference. All the resistors are good. I have attached a photo of the schematic with the voltages I have in red at the measured point. I am at a loss. Any insight would be greatly appreciated! Cheers! |

If on a heat sink, bad isolation could be shorting out this BD 140. |

it's fixed. Someone was in here before me, replaced Q808 but installed it backwards, swapping the emitter and the base. :palm: :palm: :palm: |
