Hello from California! I have a 1990’s Peavey Stereo Chorus 212, and everything works fine except the digital reverb. It used to work, but after a long hiatus from playing, it just quit on me one day. I’ve cleaned all the pots, and they all seem to work fine.
I’ve also checked U5 pin 1 and #14 on the cable as Jon Snell had previously advised another owner, and they seem fine. No audible noise/sound from the amp as one might expect turning the digital reverb and delay pots.
Original 4 button foot switch works, and reverb led lights up fine on it.
Local shop is $150/hr, with an 8 week wait before a tech can actually look at it. They advised I buy a new amp. This thing has been with me since I learned how to play, I can’t give up on it.
Below are some pics I took. I circled some spots that I feel may be an issue (corroded wires on the ceramic blocks?). Beyond this, I’m not at all good with electrical
stuff but I’m willing to dive in.
If anyone has any advice on what else I can do, please help. Thanks.
