Hi there, I have had my PS2 for several years now and it was sitting in the box for quite a while I made several moves. In trying to get it going again, I changed tubes but for the life of me I cannot get it to work when it is on. I am able to hear bypass signal when the unit is inline and bypassed but when I engage it, I hear nothing. Any ideas? Or places to start? Thank you.
Hi @dannyjw4 and welcome to the forum!
Does the unit’s green light power on? If so, you have power but no sound.
- Did you have no sounds before you changed the tubes?
- Make sure you are using the top TO SPKR output; this must be used first.
Try the troubleshooting steps below.
- Check input cable.
- Check volume controls.
- Make sure the amplifier volume and/or gain controls are turned up.
- Unplug the FX loop, check for sound.
- Connect a jumper cable from FX send directly to FX return; check for sound.
- Connect a jumper cable from Line Out directly to Line In; check for sound.
- PLEASE NOTE: When you have remove the feet to install a rack mount kit, DO NOT REINSTALL JUST THE FEET FIXING SCREWS. This will damage the unit internally and will require factory service. See Rack Kit instructions for details
- Check speaker cable to see if it is disconnected or shorted.
- Make sure that the impedance selector is fully engaged in its detent.
- Check the standby switch.
- Check for a blown speaker.
- Check the mains fuse, and replace if necessary. If it blows again, refer to qualified service personnel.
