Pop and a fizzle

The old board builder, By leaving those solder tails so long, was asking for trouble. She did terrible work.

hould not be anything touching that pad on the solder side...

The first pic is misleading for sure.

Yep, the old board builder is why I buy blank boards...

Better pic

 

[laatsch55]

That's correct....

Ok cool guess I'll start checking outputs

Funny enough I remember a year after I built it I had to open it up and tighten that exact binding post nut on the board

Hopefully you see the difference in the ones I have been building.

 

[laatsch55]

I'm pretty sure I would not find a problem with yours...

[Northwinds]

Well again, welcome to Phoenix brother, you will find this a great place to kick your shoes off and put your feet up

Among other things...

Yweblers

Pulled all the outputs and drivers and they test good

 

[T-wrecks]

It passed dim bulb tester numerous times with an 100 watt bulb. So yeah I wasn't surprised the outputs are good. At this point I am pretty convinced that this was all that shoddy soldering job

 

[WOPL Sniffer]

Excellent, fire that mother up............

 

[T-wrecks]

I can't without a replacement or repaired relay assembly, pcb

If it was a 700 DCP (and you could NOT get ahold of Don), I could help you.

If it helps, R10 is a 2 ohm resistor 1/4 watt Don't think I have one but I'll check. Don't know if anything else "WENT" with the resistor though.
