Other than the gate resistors, Q05, Q11,mosfets,U01-TL494 that is the entire circuit, short of R21,R27-47Kohm which you know to be good already. R14,R15-220 ohm if they are out of value. It wouldn't hurt to have some 1N4148's for D03,D04 on hand.

It's hard to know what else you may need until you have the power supply operational, although you should check all of the output mosfets IRF640's(two banks of six) and IRF9640's( two banks of four) and have them on hand. If one in a bank is shorted you will won't to replace the entire bank. As with the Power Supply mosfets it's recommended to be from the same batch. Having more then you need on hand is also a good idea, in case something goes awry!
 
D03,D04 - tested with diode setting (in circuit) - came back with same value so im assuming they are good. (.58 V) since it seems like only one side of the power stage was damaged. am i wrong on this one?

Tested between 1-2 2-3 1-3 on all output stage mosfets (in circuit) - all values were identical between 9640s and all values were identical between 640s. just got my 47R0 resistors in the mail along with the 3205s. still need to order the driver transistors

the 220 ohm resistors were ~218 ohms

Also for the irf640 - there is an 18A one and a 3.3A one available from mouser... im guessing the 18A.

replaced gate resistors -
1-3 and 1-2 for q6, q7, q8, q9 and q17 are all ~46K now.
The other bank was already aat ~46K. gonna leave those resistors alone.

just need to get the two driver transistors now
 
Here are two links for the Output Mosfets from Mouser, below.

When you check the output mosfets with an ohmmeter, what are the values across the outside leads 1-3? IRF640 should be 33Kohm-IRF9640 should be 25Kohm

I misspoke in a previous thread #23. I meant to type IRF640's (two banks of three)

Everything looks good. Once you replace Q05 and Q11 you can check the drive without the IRF3205's installed.

Power up the amp. With your scope grounded to the Battery Ground terminal. With the scope probe, check the waveform's at U01-TL494 Pin 5(triangle wave) Pins 9&10(Rectangle wave). Post screen shots. follow the rectangle wave to the 47 ohm gate resistors(Mosfet side) Post screen shots from either side.

I recommend you list what soldering iron,power supply,meter and scope you have in your sig line, so anyone can easily see what you have to work with and can instruct you accordingly.
 
Which pin is pin 1

Both sides of q9 gate resistor . The bounding lines on the Y axis are +5 and -5V. the bounding lines on the X axis are -15 uS and +15uS

I had +12.4 V read by the DSP part of the amp.
Not the best oscilloscope but it works
