1)POWER ON/OFF SWITCH DOES NOT LIGHT - Check your source of AC Mains power by plugging in something you know is working into that same outlet. Check the firmness of the connection of the AC Power cord in both the wall and the IEC panel mount socket. Unplug the AC cord and check the fuse for continuity with a multimeter or ohmeter. If fuse is blown, replace it with the same type and size, and then plug AC cord back into the wall outlet. If fuse blows again, or Power on rocker switch fails to light, service is required.

2)NO SOUND - Is power present? Is the Signal LED lighting up? Are the cables firmly attached and plugged into the correct jacks at each end? Are the level controls up high enough? If the signal source (green LED) does not light try first changing signal cables and check the mixer for signs of signal at the output. If all the above is not in question, the unit requires service.

3)BAD OR PARTIALLY MISSING SOUND - If the bass is weak, it is likely one or both woofers are blown. If the highs are very muted, it is likely the compression driver is blown. If the midrange is muted, it is likely the top woofer is blown. If the distortion does not seem to get worse with increasing level, the amplifier alone may need service.

4)INTERMITTANT SOUND - It is possible that you have a bad cable or connector socket. It is also possible that this is a damaged speaker or amplifier.

5)LOUD ANNOYING HUM - You may have a ground loop. Double check all connections and cables. A miswired cable can significantly increase hum. If all else fails and you can insure the amplifier chasis and metal speaker parts will not be touched or closely approached during use, try lifting the Earth ground with the rocker switch (#8).
