100s blows fuse
« on: June 10, 2001, 12:00:00 pm »
I have a 100s that keeps blowing fuses, sometimes they blow as soon as I power up, sometimes I can play for 2 or 3 hrs, sometimes it can go for weeks. I tested the tubes and they're fine, the impedance matches, I'm out of Ideas CAN ANYONE HELP?????

Thanks Sanford

It's probably a power tube that is intermittent.  While you have it on, tap the power tubes, and see if it blows the fuse.

Thanks for the reply Bill, but I've put in a new set of power tubes and it still happens, unless those tubes are bad I don't think that's it.

It could also be a filter supply cap, if they go bad, it'll blow a fuse too
