alrighty, just placed my order for the new caps. havent got a shipping date yet but im assuming a week
remember my multimeter doesnt read audio signals properly. i edit my last post read on it againcheck traces with your meter .
ok so i measured continuity all the way back to the outputs of the volume control chip to pin 3 and 20 on the STK and i had continuity on both channels there. next idea?i meant measure continuity from point to point .
i hope so. if not i have no idea what went wrong whereperhaps something simple, like some wire broken or disconnected while disassembling-assembling
i resoldered everything, for offset i have 22.3mV DC on the right and 44.5mV DC on the left. since i resoldered everything is it worth a shot to put some speakers back on and test again?if you check dc offset you should see if the speakers are connecting or not .. there is near enough always a measurable offset .
then you might want to do that buzz test again like you did ages ago .. just touching the top of the coupling cap should make it buzz somewhat .
Hmm, i dont know what caps to try. lets narrow it down. im missing left output on all inputs. so problem is after that. i believe that leaves the 2 caps on IC302 and balance fader, then a cluster of caps on the EQ bit and IC303 which are wired together.maybe try same with other coupling caps working backwards towards the input .
