I have another one of theese amps in for reapir.

The amps light will flash very quickley and the protection light will also flash very quickly like its in protection.

I checked the outputs none test shorted.

I checked power supply fets nothing there either.

Wondering where i go from here?

Is it this amp?

Heres pics of the board i have.

Also if you mess with the switches sometimes it will stay on for a min then go into protection.

Also if i connect a speaker to it all i get is a squealing noise from the test speaker

[mike49504]

Any ideas on where to start looking ? Since there is no output just a squealing noise from the outputs and then it goes into protection

[Perry Babin]

When the amp squeals, is there any high frequency oscillation on the output transistors?

[mike49504]

Im wondering if someone put the outputs in backwards since it looks like they been replaced at one time.

Wondering how do i tell where the 640's go and the 9640's go?

Also i took the outputs out of the amp already and the amp will power up perfect and idle fine.

[Perry Babin]

Are there mixed 640s and 9640s on each side of the amp or do you have 640s on one side and 9640s on the other side?

[mike49504]

There are 3 of each on both sides of the amp.

[Perry Babin]

If the center legs of each bank of outputs is connected together, the third leg of the 9640s should go to the positive rail. The third leg of the 640s should go to the negative rail. Confirm that none of the source legs (leg 3) of the 640s are connected to any of the source legs of the 9640s.

[mike49504]

Next question is do the 640's and 9640's need to be in the amp in order for it to power up?

If i stick the 640's in the amp without the 9640's the amp goes straight into protection
