Quoted from Foxxstone_80:Would TP3 reading above the recommended rate be a sign of an issue or is that an acceptable number?
243V a TP3 is within range.
Is the 3/16 amp fuse at FU8 also blowing? If not, try disconnecting one leg from the C2 electrolytic capacitor and see if the fuse stops blowing on power up. The side effect of C2 being disconnected is the displays will strobe providing the high voltage circuit is otherwise working.
Quoted from Foxxstone_80:Does it matter which end of C2 I disconnect?
It doesn't matter, disconnect either end of C2 from the circuit.
Quoted from Foxxstone_80:I double checked my readings to be sure. What does this mean now?
Sounds like that 3/4 amp fuse is blown again or there's an issue with some of the 4 rectifier diodes.
With your meter set on AC, do you measure 170VAC between the banded diode leg of diode D6 and either side of the 3/4 amp fuse?
Quoted from Foxxstone_80:the scoring displays turned on and displayed numbers while I had one probe on diode and the other on the fuse.
Sounds like a bad solder joint.
BTW that C2 electrolytic capacitor looks rather new. Is it?
