Mac C 22 down, need advice


Hello everybody, your advice will be very much appreciated. I have new version of Macintosh C22 preamp. Today when I was turning it on, I found that red standby light is off and I cannot turn it on. First thing I checked if it's properly connected to the outlet. Yes it is. So what kind of problem it can be? The fuse? How can I check it out? Thanx in advance friends.
Vadim.

check if there are outboard fuses usually near the AC power cord.

If not, they're internal and must be checked under the cover. As a matter of fact, the power fuses are usually next to AC power portion of the unit. If fuse is transparent, you can see that thin conductor is torn, or burnt. If fuse is ceramic and not transparent, you may need to use continuity tester. In fact even transparent ones you don't see conductor defect won't hurt to test for continuity.
