Re: Pye 15a problem
Don't ever switch things on without at least checking at least fuses, mains wiring and condition. You now have a set which could have anything wrong with it, new faults as well as old. It could also have been dangerous....
Start at the mains plug. Make sure it's wired right and check the fuse.
Make sure that the Single Pole On/Off switch is switching live. See if there is continuity across the mains transformer. If there is, take the set apart and check thouroughy. If not, check the wire and switch. I hope the mains transformer hasn't gone.
On the secondary side, the rectifier valve is separate, so if this is out as well as the valves, then the mains transformer is at fault unless all the heaters have gone. If the Recky is lit, then the same applies on the other winding.
I hope this is simple. This is a short superhet, and the EBL31 is a difficult valve to get. Change C20.
I have used Trader Sheet 751.
Cheers,
Steve P.
