Make sure the sensitivity switch is in the 26-dB posi-
tion and the level controls are fully clockwise. Terminate
the input with a 600-ohm load. Using a 20 to 20,000- Hz
bandpass filter, measure the noise on the output of the
channel under test. Noise is measured relative to power
output at 8-ohms (275 Watts (46.9 Vrms) for CE1000,
400 Watts (56.6 Vrms) for CE 2000) and should be at
least 100-dB down from these numbers.

Make sure the sensitivity switch is set in the 26-dB posi-
tion. Load each channel to 8-ohms. Insert a 20-kHz sine
wave into channel 1 and adjust for 44.7 Vrms output.
Terminate channel 2 input with 600 ohms. Measure less
than 80 mVrms at the output of channel 2. (Greater than
55 dB down at 20-kHz)

Move the input signal from channel 1 to channel 2 and
the 600-ohm termination from channel 2 to channel 1.
Ensure there is 44.7 Vrms at the output of channel 2.

Make sure the mode switch is in the “stereo” position.
Plug a 1-kHz source into channel 1, 2 or both and ob-
serve the amplifier outputs with a voltmeter. Set the
inputs so that about 10 Vrms is on the outputs and set
the load to 4-ohms. If the amplifier produces power
until the heatsinks get so hot that a channel goes into
thermal protection, the fan is not working correctly. With
the amplifier still in thermal protection, measure the
voltage at J4 pin 1 (the red fan wire). If this voltage is
greater than 20VDC, there is a problem in the wiring of
the fan, or a problem with the fan itself.

U106 is a thermally controlled current source that is
thermally connected to the heatsink. For channel 1,
R190 develops a voltage across it due to this current,
and this signal is OR’ed with the voltage from channel
2 and the transformer thermal switch. U4A is a DC
amplifier that voltage amplifies the signal, and Q1 and
Q2 current amplify this signal to drive the fan.

If the heatsinks are hot, and U4-7 is negative, suspect
U106, R191, R190, D119, R20, R21, R22, and U4. If
the heatsinks are hot, and U4-7 is positive but U4-1 is
low, suspect R23, R12, R11, and U4. If U4-1 is quite
high (above 10V), but J4-1 is not the same voltage,
Q1, Q2, R14, or R15 may be at fault.
