Hey Perry I have a power 360a2 that I am having trouble with. Board # PC-2065-D. It had a faulty channel putting 24 vdc to the right speaker terminal. I replaced the output fets, emitter resistors, and the gates. Still same problem. I repaired 2 Power 450S's last night with the same issue. They had SMD resistors in the channel out of tolerance. I dont seem to find any out of tolerance. The fets are puttung 24 vdc out of the drains to the terminal. Any ideas?
It's probably not a good idea to address me directly. It may make others hesitant to help.
With the black probe on the source and the red probe on the gate of the output transistor in the defective channel. What voltage do you read for each of the outputs?
Wit the black probe on the amp's ground terminal, what is the DC voltage on the bridging terminal of the defective channel?
For both of these, polarity is important.

Sorry about that Perry, kinda got into the habbit.
Q225 IRF540: 2.7 vdc
Q224 IRF9540: -.056 vdc
Q218 IRF540: 2.7 vdc
Q219 IRF9540: -.040 vdc
Bridging terminal of defective channel: -20.65 vdc
Correct me if I am wrong you want the red probe measuring the terminals while the black probe is on the emitter?
Q222: 22.78 vdc

Q213 I am unsure the numbers are all smeared together on the board and very hard to read I am PRETTY sure I am reading the right one.

Q213: -.627 vdc
I think I did it right, hopefully.
I was getting inconsistant readings, so I changed with a new 1A and now it reads 12.61vdc on 2 terminals and 0.00vdc on the other.
The amp still has the same issue.
R274 and R275 read 20.3 ohms in the circuit. Do you want me to remove them to check?
No the dc voltage on the terminal does not go away when a speaker is connected, it sparks and makes the speaker jump. I held my meter on the terminal while hooking up the speaker and the dc voltage stays
I am not sure on R260 it reads 618 and is suppose to be 621. I dont know the tolerance on it. I have 620 and 622 but no 621's.
Lifting the legs on Q213 made no difference in the dc voltage on the terminal. Since I already had 2 legs off I just removed and replaced it with a new one.
How do you determine if a SMD transistor is leaking? Same as a ouput or power supply fet?
Ohms or VDC?
BASE?
I thought they had a gate, source, and drain like a regular fet. I am unsure which is the base?
