Agree there...we all had to learn the trade..
These day's with the likes of youtube and how to clips..folk seem to forget the hard part of being trained to work with electronic items and just board change!
That's not electronics engineering in my book!..
That's some odd looking circuits laid out there...wonder how many times it faild before it worked??
Crown amps shut off there supply line to the amplifier rails mmm.
With no sound faults..check speaker to ensure it is ok.. next, does your amp have a send and return out and in?..if so plug a jack lead from the send to the return and try and see if you get sound.
Next it will be trouble shooting the inside of the amplifier using a meter..do you have a picture...
Just a quick look over that...
Last comment.. the welder chap moaned about cost as on the board.
Bluejets.. we all can spend time looking over a circuit in front of us and get it to work.
This welder cap rings moans and even pops round is it ready yet..
The control only seemed to work when adjusted to 7 to 9..
The chip is not working as it should..
In the end a new board was fitted as the welder guy moaned about cost!
Well I'm not doing this for the sheer joy!
