Title: Crack Voltage off, Front LED flickers
Post by: hanar on December 13, 2012, 09:51:16 AM

Well my resistance checks seem to be within 10%, but a few of my voltage readings are off. A-1 is 0, terminal 5 is 86 volts, B-4 is 0, and B6 is 70 volts.  The strange thing is that, while grounded at B12, the front led lights up when I touch B5 with the positive wand of the meter.  The rear led is always on.  Probably a bad solder.  Ideas?

What is terminal 2 and 3?  Looks like a short in the wiring on the 9 pin or octal socket.

I'll have to go back and measure 2,3 again.  I only wrote down the ones that were over 10% off.  But I'll definitely check out your suggestions.  Thanks.
