Carvin V3M head with 50w, 22w, 7w power selector that makes no audible difference in output. Customer says it is stuck in 7 watt mode. Here's where I get thrown. 325v supply voltage C comes in at conn H4A. In the 50 watt position I have 325v CP at the PI plate resistors R48/49, and plate voltages of 235/242v. This produces a 12vp-p sine.
Here is what I get in the other two positions:
22 watt:
R48/49 = 69v
plates 58/56v
10vp-p sine
7 watt:
R48/49 = 47v
plates = 41.7/41v
8 vp-p sine
So it appears the switch is working by lowering the PI voltages, but why does the output power not vary by more?

It also calls for: Set P27 for 80mA across standby in 50 W mode. It was set at 150 mA, I lowered it to 80mA.
