That's enough to prove that the AMP board is definitely defective. 12 volt power rail has a low resistance to ground.

Seeing as most parts on AMP board are surface mounted and require a reasonable amount of desoldering/soldering abilities ... next step in this direction would be to start isolating any audio output IC pins that connect to the 12 volt source (3 ICs - 5 pins each). ICs here

IF a GOOD replacement board can be obtained, that would be the easiest way to go about curing here for one.

I cannot vouch for the emporiums mentioned, nor did I confirm stock.

Let me know what you decide.

I tried the black lead in a few spots the neg pin of c24fl, the gnd pin on c7 plug and the corner screw hole that's earthed. All gave the same readings.

You can also put L91 back, if you haven't already.

3-1 of manual shows disassembly (No.6).

It should have, but from reading reported, seems not to have affected. Where was ground (black meter lead) for this measurement?

Sorry - No Edit button (most of the time).

Ok with U31 reinstalled I measuered the same points again across c32= 4.2-6.0Kohm

Before the 3-3.5Ohm
That was measured that with the connector J7/MCON12 disconnected as I thought it may have damaged it getting the board to where I could test it.

With the connector J7/MCON12 connected the reading on the same points was
2.9Ohm

Reinstall U31.

Disconnect other amp connector J7/MCON12.

Repeat resistance measurements to SAME 2 points.

Sorry my mistake, it's 3-3.5 ohm from that wire to ground on the amp pcb

I am NOT asking whether the wire that carries 12V from the power supply to the amp board has continuity.
I'm asking if there is a low ohm reading from that wire to GND.
