| From time to time we do see burn marks under components that run rather warm... what could have happened is that the heat could have damaged the soldered connection underneath, we call these 'dry joints', they look dull, gray and tired, close inspection may reveal cracks around component leads and all that's required here is a re-solder.
On the other hand it could be caused by a faulty component, usually a regulator, transistor, chip (IC) or diode that has gone leaky. A check with a test meter should reveal further clues along with a re-solder. Dave |

|
my 10yrs old receiver 
It will produce a sound for a couple of minutes and cut off when I turn off and turn on again the sound back for a couple of minutes. I opened the cover and found out a pcb burn marks near D935, D936 and R924 near white ribbon connector/terminal any ideas? thanks |
