Harry, If it uses a STRM6511 IC in the supply circuit....change it. I had a AP63 chassis doing the same...yours is a AP53 and is somewhat similar I believe. I know you resoldered some areas already....but resolder ALL heatsinked parts and board connectors. ========================== Jeff Stielau Shoreline Electronics Repair 344 East Main Street Clinton,CT 06413 860-399-1861 860-664-3535 (fax) jstielau@xxxxxxxx ========================== "If you push something hard enough it will fall over."
