The amps should be marked on the body of the fuse. If it is not then I can look it up. Let me know when you have the board out and before you change that fuse. I have a few parts I want you to test that should be easy to get at after it is removed. So let me now when it is out.

I now have access to the amp board. Fuse does not have amps marks. The only mark on the fuse is F riding on an enlarged L followed by 1 (LF 1 with F riding on the bottom line of L). This is true for both the fuses. Let me know what else needs to be measured/tested.
A big thank you for guiding me through troubleshooting so far.

Ok. The amp rating of P5003 is 1 amp. Other parts to test are; Q5705, Q5706, R5705, R5706, D5717. And you are welcome.

Located Q5705, it is short on all 3 legs, tested with DMM on diode scale. (toasted ?) Q5706, R5705, R5706 and D5717 are not located. May I ask for diagram to help me locate.

Should be on the backside of the board from Q5705.

To gain access to the underneath of the board will require practically totally taking everything apart (a Herculean task for me). I have removed 3 boards to gain access to the top side where Q5705 (and Q5707) resides. Is there any way that these parts can be tested from top?

How are you going to replace Q5705 without removing the board?

I intend to cut the Q5705, leaving the legs soldered. then I will solder the legs of new transistor over the already soldered legs. Not a very elegant solution but hope it will work. May have to provide new heatsink.

On a second thought, I think it is better if I undertake this herculean task to be safer and surer about the precision of work. Will start taking things apart soon, stay tuned.

I am having difficulty disconnecting several ribbon cables (CN2003, CN1401, CN2204, CN2203). Can you suggest how to disconnect them safely and reconnect.

You shouldn't have to disconnect all the cables. Just so you can swing it up to get at the bottom side.

The picture is quite helpful in understanding the construct of chasis, it will let me test the parts under the amp board. Hypothetically speaking if all those parts are OK, I still need to replace Q5705 and blown out fuse and I still need to take the amplifier board out to have access to the top and bottom surfaces, and it requires to disconnect all the connectors from all the top boards. I have disengaged all other connectors except the ribbon ones, where I am not able to figure out how to disconnect without damaging the cable or connector.

Is there any way you can take a picture of the connectors that are giving you trouble?
