Give me the DC voltage on all 14 pins of the LM339. Place the black meter probe on chassis ground. Place the red meter probe on the point where you need to measure the voltage. Be careful. Don't allow your probe to slip and short between the pins of the IC. If the probes aren't sharp, sharpen them. Have the transistors clamped and either a 10 amp fuse or a 2 ohm current limiting resistor in series with the B+ line.

LM339
Pin 1: 3.6mv
Pin 2: 150.0mv
Pin 3: 100.0mv
Pin 4: 100.0mv
Pin 5: 90mv
Pin 6: 0.0
Pin 7: 25.0mv
Pin 8: 0.0
Pin 9: 0.0
Pin 10: 0.0
Pin 11: 0.0
Pin 12: 0.0
Pin 13: 0.0
Pin 14:0.0

seems to have got worse. doesn't even power up anymore.
 
You should have the same voltage on pin 3 of the LM339 as you do on pin 1 of the vertical board. Has the voltage changed significantly on the vertical board's pins?

Have you confirmed that the fuses are not blown, that you have voltage (~12v) on both the remote and B+ terminals, and also have good ground?

only pin 1 of the vertical board has voltage now....
 
It likely has DK printed on it. If so, it's likely a KTA1661. If you want to continue troubleshooting, you can solder legs 2 and 3 together. You'll have to remove B+ to shut the amp down.

If you want to be safe, you should use a fused jumper (3 amp max) to connect leg 2 to leg 3. This will help protect the board if there is a short that caused the transistor to fail.
 
and ground terminals of the amp?changed power source due to problems with the other. I have 12v on b+ and ground...


Does pin 1 of the vertical board have only 6v on it? no, it has b+ voltage on pin 1 and pin 5

Are you sure you have the pin configuration correct. Pin 12 should be at 0v. looking at the dimple from front, i started on the right side and worked my way around..
 
Look at the pin numbering on the attached image.

You need to list the voltages again and you need to determine why you have only 6v on pin 3 but have 12v on pin 1 of the driver board. They should be connected directly together (~0 ohms between them).

You didn't say what the problem was with your original supply. Was the voltage on it low?

I have 150 ohms between pin 3 and pin 1. The pin id goes as follows:

LM339
Pin 1: 6.52
Pin 2: 0
Pin 3: 6.45
Pin 4: 6.45
Pin 5: 0
Pin 6: 6.45
Pin 7: 0
Pin 8: 6.45 pin 14
Pin 9: 6.45 pin 13
Pin 10:1.0 pin 12
Pin 11: 6.45 pin 11
Pin 12: 6.45 pin 10
Pin 13: 6.05 pin 9
Pin 14:6.45 pin 8
