grawk Posted February 22, 2007 Report Posted February 22, 2007 My MPX3 in the toaster variety isn't turning on. Any suggestions?
Grand Enigma Posted February 22, 2007 Report Posted February 22, 2007 It is likely brokered and quite simply doesn't like you.... open her up and make sure the coils and such look normal.
NotoriousBIG_PJ Posted February 22, 2007 Report Posted February 22, 2007 The fuse could have lost connection. Biggie.
grawk Posted February 22, 2007 Author Report Posted February 22, 2007 I opened it up last night, and didn't see anything obvious, and didn't see anything that looked like a fuse...at least not the glass tubes I was expecting.
thrice Posted February 22, 2007 Report Posted February 22, 2007 Some fuses are ceramic, but in this case I don't think a ceramic fuse would be used. Didn't some other folks have trouble with the power switches on the older toaster MPX amps?
hungrych Posted February 22, 2007 Report Posted February 22, 2007 The butter goes on after the bread is toasted....
NotoriousBIG_PJ Posted February 22, 2007 Report Posted February 22, 2007 Some amps use a fuse holder, which conceals the little fuse. So many other things that it could be though. Biggie.
n_maher Posted February 22, 2007 Report Posted February 22, 2007 Grawk, I assume that you checked the IEC inlet to make sure that it doesn't have a built in fuse. It might not be the most obvious thing and I don't know if Mikhail has ever used inlets of that type. It might looking something like this. Also, it could definitely be something like the switch. If you've got a DMM it should be pretty easy to check the continuity at the switch (with the power disconnected for safety of course). Let us know what you're able to check.
grawk Posted February 22, 2007 Author Report Posted February 22, 2007 That was it, thanks. I found the fuse, now to radio shack to replace it
grawk Posted February 22, 2007 Author Report Posted February 22, 2007 And it's working. Thanks Nate! I owe you a beer.
Iron_Dreamer Posted February 23, 2007 Report Posted February 23, 2007 Cheers, the toaster flames on again!
humanflyz Posted February 23, 2007 Report Posted February 23, 2007 LOL@Grawk's avatar. That shit is hiliarious
grawk Posted February 23, 2007 Author Report Posted February 23, 2007 Yup, want me to send it back to you?
grawk Posted February 23, 2007 Author Report Posted February 23, 2007 I don't, pm it to me and I'll drop it in the mail to you tomorrow
Dusty Chalk Posted February 23, 2007 Report Posted February 23, 2007 The whole thing cracks me up. I mean, shit, the most important thing about comedy is timing, and someone squoze comedy into an animated .gif -- fucking brillo.the reference to the Sugarcubes' song in that little animation is what cracks me up. What reference?
n_maher Posted February 23, 2007 Report Posted February 23, 2007 And it's working. Thanks Nate! I owe you a beer. Happy to be of service!
