        It seems that the CR37 voltage is a bit high, and the CR36 voltage is a bit low.
        But you also mentioned that the common point is not at zero, but at 1.495. Is it still not zero at the other end of CR37?
        Are all the grounds connected and board mounting screws in place?

          all mounting screws are in ill ck tonight BUT I REALLY DIDNT SEE ANY OTHER GROUND WIRES EXCEPT IN THE PLASTIC PLUGS AND THEY LOOKED OK BUT ILL CK TONIGHT ON THAT VOLTAGE THANKS

            Not so much a missing ground wire, but perhaps a broken or burnt off ground trace on the board. Measure resistance to chassis from the "ground" point of the two zeners. It SHOULD read zero ohms or close.
            Education is what you're left with after you have forgotten what you have learned.

                i thought i put this in early but heres what we have the 17 volts is 16.06 the ground side is .114 i cked the caps around that area and .114 is a lot of them

                      Do you have your black probe on the chassis metal?

                          With power off measure resistance from chassis metal to the ground end of those zener diodes.

                              chassis ground to diode 47 ohms recked voltage on diode back to 17 and 1.495 all the caps in the area 47 ohms and 1.495 volts if i have to i can bring amp back to work and keep cking. also chassis to volume pots are 0.06 ohms thanks
