Hey guys could use some guidance from one of the Vets here on this one. Its a k7000 clone and actually very straightforward chassis. So started off it was missing the fuse its a 3A fuse i put in a SB because thats what the k7000 uses only 1.5 A SB. The manual dosent say. So after powering it on r901 a ceramic 1.5ohm 5watt resistor starts getting super hot and smokes. I replaced it even though I dont think there is anything wrong with the one i took out I didnt leave it run long enough to burn it up. I replaced the power regulator its uses the same one as k7000, dont think there was anything wrong with the one I took out. Tested the bridge rectifier diodes they all test good in circuit I think. Im not sure id they. Re suppose to only test like a diode on the negative side or both ways. Any other ideas?
Maybe a bad cap? I dont see any suspicious and i tested them for shorts. I guess I might as well order the cap kit and do that.
Here is the manual. All I can think is maybe shotgunning new bridge rectifier diodes?
