Yamaha CR-1020 idling current not adjusting

After cleaning..
Idle currents are still the same as before.
The left channel commences at 75mV and climbs steadily upwards.
The right channel stays at 0
 
OK .. Unplug your unit from the wall. I need you to measure the resistance (Ω) between TP1 and O (output).. Should be .47 Ω
 
Use the 2V range on your meter and retry the idle current adjustment.
 
If you subtract your test lead resistance from that .9 reading it will be closer to .47.. Most Multimeters don't read low resistance values very accurately.
 
OK...This is weird.. Lets see what the voltages are on the output transistors collectors.. The Collector is the metal casing of a TO-3 transistor. Connect your black lead to the metal chassis as before.With the red probe check the DC voltages on all 4 output transistors. Should be the same as the fuses +/- 48-49 vdc.

Need some more photos..Of both of your trimmer solder connections.
 
Did you replace any other components on the amplifier boards ?
