Default Re: My first valve radio project - Philips 462A

Oh.

Unplug the mains lead from the wall and the set. Switch your multimeter to continuity. Start with one probe on the live pin of the mains plug, and the other at the "set" end connector. If that proves through, plug the mains lead back into the radio and follow the circuit all the way through until you lose continuity.

The most likely culprit is the mains switch. They have been known to fix themselves with repeated operations .....
