If the MCC602TM produces no sound, no Meter

 

 

 

Illumination, the power control and the power

 

 

 

supply connections seem secure, one or more

Figure7

 

of the Amplifier Fuse(s) may have failed.

 

 

Under normal operating conditions your

 

 

amplifier’s fuses should not fail. Failure of a

 

 

fuse is usually an indication of a problem.

 

 

Replacing the fuse, if there is problem in the

 

 

amplifier, may incur a risk of further damage.

Refer to figures 7, 8 and 9.

 

 

 

Caution: Disconnect the Amplifier from the

 

 

 

Vehicle Battery ( or DC Power Supply)

 

 

 

as Potentially Dangerous Currents

 

 

 

exist inside the amplifier.

 

 

 

1. Before accessing fuses, disconnect both the

 

 

 

positive and negative power cables from

 

 

 

the DC input terminals on the left side of

 

 

 

RemoveEndCapScrews

the amplifier using a 5/32” hex key.

2. Remove the Top Glass Panel by first

 

 

removing the eight hex bolts with the sup-

 

 

plied 3/32” hex key.

 

 

3. Attach the supplied suction cup to either

 

 

side of the top glass panel and carefully

 

 

raise it high enough to put your hand under.

 

RemoveEndCapScrews

and lift the end caps off.

 

Temporarily place the removed glass panel

 

 

in a safe place, remove the suction cup and

 

 

Locationofthefourfuses

save it for future use.

 

 

4. Remove the Phillips Screws holding the

 

 

End Caps on both sides of the amplifier

 

 

5. Remove the fuses with needle nose pliers,

 

 

taking care to avoid hitting the wattmeter

 

 

during removal. Do not lever the pliers

 

 

 

 

 

 

against the wattmeter.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Note: To determine if the fuse has failed, examine

Figure9

 

 

the link between the two fuse legs to see if

 

 

it has a break in it.

 

 

6. Replace the fuse with one of the same type

 

 

and rating as unauthorized substitutions

 

 

may prove hazardous to you and the

 

 

amplifier.

 

 

7. When reinserting the fuse, set it in place

 

 

with the pliers, then push it the rest of the

 

 

 

 

way in with your finger to avoid having the

 

 

 

 

pliers slip and hit the circuit board.

 

 

 

 

8. Reinstall the Top Glass Panel.

 

 

 

 

9. Reconnect the power cables to the vehicle

 

 

 

 

battery.

 

 

 

 

If the replacement fuse(s) fails again, have the

 

 

 

 

amplifier repaired at a McIntosh Service Center.

FAQ

What should I do if my MCC602TM produces no sound or no meter illumination?

If your amplifier is not producing sound or meter illumination, it may be due to a failed fuse. Follow the instructions to replace the fuses and check if that solves the issue.

What precautions should I take before replacing the fuses?

Before replacing the fuses, make sure to disconnect the amplifier from the vehicle battery or DC power supply to avoid any potential electrical hazards.

What should I do if the replacement fuse fails again?

If the replacement fuse fails again, it is recommended to have the amplifier repaired at a McIntosh Service Center to ensure proper and safe functioning.
