Adjusting B+ Voltage on a Sanyo 20EZV - What Am I doing wrong?
Ok, I feel like a moron but I can't get a reading off the BJ pot. I'm pretty sure I have everything right, but here's some pics- so maybe some one can tell me what the hell I'm doing wrong. I suspect it's my multimeter. Although it was new, it was given to me in a box of junk in it's original unopened package. I have no idea how old it is. When I flip around the dial I do get random numbers when I have it connected, so it seems to at least work- but I'm not sure if it works correctly. Anyway, maybe it's OE so tell me if everything looks hooked up OK.
Here's my set-up. You can see I have my multimeter on my chair and my wires running to the cab.
Here's where I have my ground.
It was hard to get a good shot in here, but through it's blurriness it's connected to the B+. I have Dokerts B+ tester cable connected to it all, which by the way works way better than an alligator clip in such a tight spot, where there's high voltage and no finger space.
And here's my multimeter. While the monitor is not on, this is where I think I'm supposed to have it set... right? Are all the cables connected correctly into it? By the way the selector arrow is at about 11 o'clock.
So anyone know what's going on? All caps, even the C606 are all brand new. Why wouldn't I get any reading at all? As far as that B+ cable being the weak link- well I've done this before with alligator clips with the exact same result. As far as adjusting the B+ pot itself, I know how to do it, but before doing so I'd like to get a reading.
