Hey all.... Well, the Marshall TSL combo is back on my bench. I know, I know.. I just "fixed" it. Apparently it played very well for a few days. He loved the sound. He blew the HT fuse and smoked R63. Again. So, looking at the back of the amp, the right 2 power tubes, I have ~130-150 volts DC on pins 5 with the tubes pulled. The pot does nothing. The left pair has a proper negative voltage and the bias pot does affect the voltage. (-30--40 ish). The capacitor (C36) side of R67 (220k) I read around -42 volts... On the other side of the same damn resistor, I read +150... It starts out around +50 and climbs to 150. I've changed C36 and R67 and it stays the same... Anyone have any idea why this is behaving this way? I also changed the 5.6k resistor (R66) next to R67 and no joy.
Here is the schematic...
