I recently received a first generation Fender Hot Rod Deluxe from my uncle. He had it repaired a few years ago and within the first thirty minutes he got it back and started playing it it started smoking and he smelled burning. He shut it off and it hasn’t powered on since. I took it to a repairman in town who checked some of the voltages with a power meter. He said everything he checked works perfectly and that if he had to guess it would be a bad transformer. So I purchased a transformer and replaced it reattaching the wires exactly where I found them. Alas the amp still doesn’t work. So I found the schematics online and stated checking voltages in different places. Of the ones I checked Testpoint 34 or pin three measured almost 0 when it should be -13 volts. More alarmingly testpoint 2 measured 450 volts and testpoint 5 measured 455 volts. Neither of these should be higher than a couple hundred millivolts. I am not sure what could cause this problem which is why I’m turning to this form. I would greatly appreciate some help fixing this amp. I’m willing to check other test points or answer any other questions you might have about this amp.
