I just finished a Crack build and it passes all resistance checks except for Terminal 22 (open/no connection). This is the transformer mounting screw so there's no soldering to show. 

This build passed the initial power test and glow test.

That would indicate no connection to the transformer end bell. Try tightening that screw down a little more. Do the other two screws show continuity to ground? they should.

Thanks. I removed and degreased the screw, and then reinstalled it (tighter). It's working now.

Voltage checks passed on the first try. I'm testing now with music and it sounds great!

Thanks again.
