    And yeah okay I think if it was me I’d dismount the main power transformer, fuse PCB, and that sensor PCB mounted to the back of the...

    I wasn’t saying looking on the Mouser or Digikey website for cross-reference. Get old-school and call them…or open a live chat...

    Thanks. I appreciate it. “Algorithmic Overlord”…lol Can you post a pic or some pics of what you are looking at as far as extracting...

    I need to revise my direction…transistors CAN be tested in circuit, I have just avoided doing it because I don’t trust the accuracy of...

    Yes, had planned it that way.

    Transistors have to be tested out of circuit When you pull the PCB assembly, do it after it’s been unplugged and switched off...

    So just because the voltage doesn’t seem correct at the base of Q801 does not necessarily mean Q801 is the cause of the fault. But it’s...

    I did exactly as you asked. I just confirmed by looking at the spec sheet for a 2CS1645B that base was indeed on the side. I'm...

    So you measured from pin 2 of J171 to pin 1 of Q801, which is the pin closest to the edge of the power supply PCB? I just want to make...

    Measure for DC volts between J171 pin 2 and the base of transistor Q801. The base pin is the first one, the one closest to the edge of...

    600mV is very not right for pin 3 after startup. Yes, reference to pin 2 for ground is correct. Did you get that measurement with...

    Too many posts. I can’t keep up with the blasts. Please let’s take things one step at a time.

    Think about this…how can it be the heads, or only the heads? You connected a source to an input and got nothing at the output. No heads...

    Turn on the 34B. Give it a few seconds, and then measure for DC volts at pin 3 of J171. What do you get?

    You’ve got your hands full and I’m not sure if I’m going to be able to help. Again if it is global then it has to be something high up...
