My First WOPL 400 Series 2 Build
- Thread starter Dnspy007
- Start date
Hmmmm . . . You put the larger caps in with the WOPL stuff, right? You might check the main bridge rectifier to see if it has failed due to the higher inrush, or (god forbid) one of the caps was installed backwards and has failed into a short. A bit of a longshot, but not impossible, considering that the rail fuses are not failing.

First, I'd like to thank Joe, Who was gracious enough to give me a call yesterday. I was embarrassed after posting about the meter switch and didn't want to look more of a fool, Than I already had. It was easier for me to explain over the phone, More understandable for Him I think, Than my writing on the forum. It didn't take Joe but a minute to figure out what the problem was. (So Smart) I was using the 5amp Rail fuses in the main power, Which should've been a 10amp. 
When I ordered my kit, I ordered fuses with the fuse holders. Due to my lack of knowledge and experience, I used them, Thinking they were the ones to use. OOPS. Hopefully, A lesson I won't soon forget. Learning all the time. I greatly appreciate everyone for their help and guidance throughout this build. All the advice and encouragement given, Helped me produce a SWEEEEEEEET sounding amp. Thank you, So much. You guys are AWSOME!
