Perry I removed one of the output driver board (it was alil hotter then the other one) and that stopped R52 from getting hot and no more short on the negative regulator 1-3 . But I have this on the regulators

1. 15.5
2. -7.27
3. 4.62

1. -7.26
2. -33.0
3. -19.6

That dosent look right ? Another bad part on the output side ?
 
With your ohm meter, find the pin on the driver board that connects to the output pin of the regulator that appeared shorted. Start looking for the short on the board from that pin on the driver board.

I know that you'll want to skip around initially and that's OK but after you see what's in it, read through it in order (top to bottom in the directory). It will make much more sense that way.
 
Ive had long installs here and were making a channel letter sign " CAR AUDIO 30" X 16 feet " here and at the shop . By the time I get to the house eat am beat LOL ! But Im just going over the amp repair disk since the day I got it ,yes alot of material I LOVE IT . Today Iam going to check out that short . This morning I was looking at the differnet types of Class D amps, I didnt know that there were more than one . Will do Class D type 2 man your disk should be called the AMP REPAIR BIBLE LOL !
 
Resistance , diode , cap , ects. I have another fluke it has current mA test so the 233 dosent hurt that it dosent have it . Yes I did read #2 the 233 has a 2 volt diode test and the 87V has a 3 volt diode test . That the only thing that I wanted for the 233 to have 3 volt diode test for the fets test .
 
I'm not familiar with the 115 or the 233. The 87s are very good and very capable but not the best for repair work. I'd suggest that you buy a 10, 11 or 12 and if you don't like it, then you can buy one of the others. If you don't pay too much for it, I'll buy it from you if you don't like it.
 
Perry yep solder bridge was causing the short on the regulator and R52 to get hot . I check to find which pin from the regulator goes to the output driver board , and everything check out on the output drive board I cleaned up the solder joints , solder output driver board back in business . 1.5 amp current draw with output fets . I was checking the B-52 F-16 wave forms and comparing them to your amp repair disk Class D type 1 . Tonight I will reinstall the output fets and see what happens.
