[QUOTE="AndyM, post: 106331, member: 3008"] The amp I traded in for my Randall did this twice. The initial problem was simply carbon buildup on the circuit board, which caused something to short out. The first time it happened, I tinkered with it for about a week and just ended up doing more damage than good. Ended up having to replace the cheap connector I fried. The second time it happened, I got desperate and scrubbed all the solder connections with a toothbrush (the board DID look pretty dirty). Turned it on, and everything worked fine. I'm not at all sure about what's wrong with yours, this is just a guess. Were the tubes still lighting up right after this happened? I know you said nothing's lighting up now, but I'm wondering if anything might have gotten damaged between the time it stopped working and now. [/QUOTE]
