Long time leader, first time poster. I have a question about a stereo light on my Sony tuner. When I got the tuner the stereo light was burned out. I can tell that the tuner is still going into stereo mode, but I'm having a problem with the light. When I hook up a new light bulb the volume coming out of my amp if we reduced. As soon as I unhook the new light the volume comes back up. It's like something is happening to reduce the tuners output whenever the ball is hooked up.

Does this sound familiar to anyone?

Thanks in advance.
 
No manual at Hifiengine and don't have it in my collection. I would get the manual and make sure you are using the correct bulb. Sounds like you are drawing too much current. If the correct bulb, I would look at how the bulb is driven and switched on and off. Some times tied in the the muting circuit.
