COURSE OF ACTION
FUNCTION PROBLEMS
The SET voltage is erratic or not
adjustable over the entire range of
control. The actual voltage is also
erratic like the SET voltage.
1. Check for loose or faulty con-
nections on leads #634, #635
and #636 between the voltage
control potentiometer (R3) and
the voltage PC board.
1. Remove power to the LN-9 and
disconnect Plug J1 from the
voltage PC board. Check the
resistance of the voltage control
potentiometer (R3). When
measured from the wiper (lead
#635) to lead #634, the resis-
tance should vary smoothly
from 0 to 10,000 ohms when the
shaft is rotated.
2. The voltage PC board may be
faulty. Replace.
The field fuse (F101), located on
the power PC board, repeatedly
fails.
1. Very rapid and repetitive gun
triggering can possibly cause
the field fuse to fail.
1. Perform the
T1 Transformer
Test.
2. Perform the
Wire Drive Motor
Test.
3. Disconnect the meter board. If
the problem is resolved, the
meter board may be faulty.
4. The power PC board may be
faulty. Replace.
