beogram 4002 smoking diodes

4 replies
I recently acquired a dead 4002 turntable. I changed a bunch of transistors that tested badly and turned it on. It all worked for about a minute then the rectifier diodes (D1-D4) started smoking. Any ideas? Thanks
Something shorted? Which transistors did you replace? How did they measure wrong? And what did you fit instead? Martin
thanks for the response. Appreciate it. I am using a dim bulb tester now....I replaced TR13 and 14 as they tested bad. But now IC1 is suspect - tests as a diode on a working 4002. Fails any test on this board.
