Testing Procedure
A. Power Amp Section
Resistance from S+ (SPK O/P) to GND should be >1M (NO LOAD)
Resistance
Check
Resistance from V+ (C6 P+) to V- (C8 P-) gradually Fully CHARGED should read >10k
Resistance from V+ (C6 P+) to S+ (SPK O/P) should read >1M
Resistance from V- (C8 P-) to S+ (SPK O/P) should read >1M
2. Power Up LED RED
With a 5mV signal to Low level input, LED should change to GREEN

BE FLOATING. ATTACH THE SCOPE PROBE TIP TO S - and REFERENCE
LEAD TO S+.
