IC355 Removed. Reads 0.916 on the diode test between two outer legs. This was your response I was referring to. What is your meters exact reading on the outer legs with it removed.

What are your thoughts on IC352's brief reading I get?

No, that is not a short. Short is 0.000 with maybe a small number at the end sometimes, like 0.001, 0.002 or 0.003, but never when it's a tenth or more, like 0.100, 0.200 or higher.
So let me reqroup here and we can make some more tests. Recheck all those regulators again looking for short readings.

In that case, there is no short reading on any of these!! Sorry...lol!! I told you I don't know much!! One thing I noticed that when I test the regulators, they all show readings between the outer legs in one direction (0.56 - 0.615) and show OL when I switch the probes. I guess that's normal right? But IC355 is the only one that is showing readings on both directions on outer legs.

What are your readings in both directions and is it still removed?

0.604 and 0.905

And yes, it is still detached from the board!

I would next like you to replace the blown fuse, leave D301 lifted, leave Q301 removed and jumper installed, leave the regulator board removed and make sure any disconnected wires are not touching anything or each other and then plug it in and see if the fuse blows. Again, you will not have to hit the power button. I just retested the above with the relay jumper in place, it blew the fuse!!! Crazy....

Sorry,had to run out for a couple hours. So it blew the fuse. Do you have a lamp socket and a 100 watt bulb?

Yes I do.

Ok. Remove the blown fuse and wire the lamp socket in place of the fuse. Meaning, 1 lamp wire to 1 fuse contact and the other lamp wire to the other fuse contact. Screw in the 100 watt lamp and plug in the receiver and let me know what the lamp does.

The lamp comes on!
