Hot rod deluxe problem

[blu4x5]

also while i'm doing this i'm going to replace R78/79 can i replace these w/ the 5w 330k or should i go back w/ the 5w 470k.

I'd stick with the 470 OHMs
Beware-that's OHMs Not KOHMs as you stated in your last post.

Just raise them off the board a little and add a little high temp silicone if you feel like it.

Cheers,

just order parts from MOUSER hopefully this fixes it. pretty cheap fix. will keep the forum update once parts are replaced. think my deville got same problem.

ok its been awhile but i found sometime to open this thing up. before i am to take out R57/58 i thought i check the specs of the ones on the board.


on board:
R57 measured 81.1K
R58 didnt register on the meter

new resistors:
R57 measured 81.7k.
R58 measured 99.7k

with this info in hand i believe it is R58 that is bad.

proceeding w/ replacement.

rehearsal went pretty flawless. i think this case is closed.

thanks again for everyone's $0.02 i learned a lot.
