Thanks for input!
Have hit the pots and switches with another round of contact cleaning spray (ran out so need to get more) and replaced all fuses. They measured ok but just to be sure they're ok.
But still: only lights and no audio except for a thump on power up and some pops when hitting the switches.
Otherwise same symptoms as I described in an earlier post.
Will get another can of contact cleaner and give it one more try. But if third time is no charm with that method, I need some help to troubleshoot further. I have a multimeter and know the basics about measuring voltages and currents and continuity.
Is there by way to measure if a switch is bad? Any other possible causes that makes this thing quiet?
