Rockford Fosgate punch 500s

I pulled a fosgate back from the dumpster, dry soder joints missing all fets and source resistors, it was pretty bad. It's running but I have 41.1vdc right speaker output. channel left is good. Any ideas.

Check the transistors marked 1A and 2A.


Re-check the output transistors in that channel to make sure none are leaky or shorted. Sometimes if they get to hot during replacement they can short or leak.


Once the DC is remedied if the channel will still not bias and has static check the diodes marked 5A and A7. Always check the smd resistors in the problem channel to make sure within tolerance.
 
I run through them on diode test, and look for the .4-.6vdc on those transistors, I never been taught other wise. I just kind of figured bit out. Ididn't check the 5a diodes. I found a few resistors missing from this channel and the lm337 was completely ripped from the rail pad and all. Thinking maybe just cut out the section and mount mosfets to the, sink? No shorted outputs, I turned both bias peds all the way down. I'll change the drivers first. See what happens. Thanks sean
 
Yes and double checked them perry with the other side. This however before I found the bad driver transistor. I'll get some new numbers perry. Now it's back to driving them and I have gate signal at the power supply fets. I'll double check all my locations of the npn, and pnp's and recheck the 494 DC.
