Quote from: saturated on April 12, 2024, 07:53:18 PMSo I'm going out on a limb here and proposing that the 8k ohm 10w resistor is shorted to ground. It measures 170v on one end and zero on the other.That's not going out on a limb, that is good solid logic. (assuming you verified the resistor is ok)
A quick look at the schematic (a forensically enhanced version kindly provided by the Mighty Mick) to me places cross hairs directly on the zener diode.

So I'm guessing that the zener diode is shorted...idk.

The circuit is open.

At least small steaks...well done...
Quote from: joecool85 on April 11, 2024, 03:53:39 PMI recommend making sure that the input jack is clean and connected well to both line and ground. If not, it could be only letting some signal through causing these issues.I will, thanks.
