Just getting into stereo vintage repair. My receiver just went out, the Technics SA-616. Here are symptoms:
It was working fine for the last 2 months. Now the left channel does not work on Tape 1 or Tape 2. I would like to use an equalizer and I cannot get the left channel to work any more. I swapped out the equalizer but I get the same behavior on both Tape 1 and Tape 2.
For the last two weeks I could turn the power off and turn the power back on and the left channel would sometimes click in and work and be ok after the speaker protection circuit clicked from "protection" to "safety".
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have a scope and signal generator so I thought I would work through the boards and see where the issue is...
