On 1 side of the amp I get very close to 0 volts from gate to source on both the 640/9640.
The other side of the board I get very close to 0 volts from gate to source on all of the 9640’s the teasing is like 0.3 volts
On the 640’s on 1 side of the amp from gate to source I get 8 volts
Q942,941,442,441 is where I get the 8 volts from gate to source

Re-check the drive circuit for the FETs with 8v.
Use the circuit in the following SM for a reference:

The problem with the 8 volts between gate and source is most likely on the audio driverboards ? And not the other board with the LM361 ?
I install 1 driver board at a time and both of them cause the same issue .
The only thing that hasn’t been replaced on them is the diodes marked C3
Do you happen to know a part number for these ?
Since the schematic you posted the board locations do not match up to the driverboards in this amp

When doing repairs on car amps, you rarely get an exact diagram. The circuit is basically the same.
Use the markup feature of your PDF software to mark the part numbers in the orion.
Confirm that you have the emitters read low resistance to the gates. Confirm the rest of the connections.
Confirm that you have 12v across the collectors of all of the drivers.
Confirm that you have a strong signal on the bases of the drivers...

Here are the voltages that are on the LM361 and the other IC marked F16
Do these voltages appear to be correct ?

I guess that wasn’t it either .
I don’t understand why I get 8 volts from gate to source on 1 bank of outputs .
If I only put one driver board in at a time I bet the problem on 1 bank of I remove that driverboard and replace it with the other driverboard the problem is still there .

I reinstalled both driverboards now I get 4 volts on all of the outputs from gate to source . Red probe on gate black probe on source .
I’m measuring them with a multimeter .
I thought I had a intermittent connection since when I pushed on the board the voltage would drop to 0 then climb back up to 8 volts .
