HI All,

Very new here and wondering if someone can help out, I bought a Marantz 1090, and it keeps blowing fuses in the position shown in pic and circled in red. What size are these suppose to be for a 240V in the 2 positions ??

Also if they keep blowing, any guidance on fault finding would be appreciated ...

Regards

SM shows F801, F802 and F803 in parts list. But I only find F802 on the schematic. 801 is 3.5 A and 802/803 are 500mA.

thanks, Steven,
which one is the 801 in my Pic that takes the 3.5A, there are no markings there?
So i can see which one is 802 on the board as below and has a fuse in it as 500mA

Found them. They are off of opposite sides of the bridge rectifier - F802/803. 500mA. If they are blowing, something is up — bridge rectifier?
 
Sorry again. They are F803/804. 804 not on parts list. But I’ll bet both are 500mA. They don’t show up on the main schematic, but they are on the schematic on page 8 of the SM, toward the right, off of the bridge rectifier.

I’m no expert, but I would check the bridge rectifier first. They are between the rectifier and the main caps, so prime suspects would be shorted rectifier or a short in a main cap.
 
Bedtime here. Hopefully one of the true experts will chime in and guide you in diagnosing now that we know what the fuses are for. Good luck!
