Hi fellow techs, Both output transistors, Q712, Q713 are shorted on one side?and Q755, Q757 are shorted on the other side. Must be a ying/yang thing. Does anyone have the schematic for this Sony STR-D315? I don?t repair a lot of stereos so this one seems different to me. I might have shorted Q755 and Q757 when I was measuring the voltages at the outputs with the outputs disconnected. As I was measuring the voltages Q705 fell out of circuit because it was so hot the solder melted. This transistor however still tests good. That is when I checked the other 3 similar transistors and found Q755 and Q757 shorted. I think I tested these before and they tested good. I tested these before because the solder connections looked like they had endured a lot of heat.
