I have a mtx 7801 amp
I was running the amp off stock alt and voltage dropped low, below 10v
Amp shut off. I recently decided to take a look at the amp to try my hand at repair but am lost on where to start testing. An mtx tech said to start testing the fets off the heatsink.
I found a fourm on an mtx 8001 and found an image attached that matches what someone else did to my amp. I dont know the purpose, it looks like a cap in line with the fet, im guessing its been replaced and this is to ensure proper voltage, but i could use some clarification and instuction on testing and repair.
