i agree. Ive been working late at my garage thow lately and ive only had sporatic time to work on it. Seems this is the 2 weeks of overheating GM cars. 3 cavaliers, a grand AM, and a saturn. then randomly a Mazda pickup that the guy tore the engine down on and gave up....sent us the truck with the engine pieces in a box on the passenger seat
He's gonna love the bill we give him for sorting through that mess.
Back to the radio.....ive tested 2 resistors that looked suspect in the output stage, both had drifted to almost open circuits, and one was a 470 ohm! So im gonna get new resistors and just replace any bad looking ones and go from there. Ill start in the output stage and test as i go. Also i got the new rectifier diode and resistor to replace the selenium. Ill keep you posted as i go.
