Good, you’ve narrowed it down, I say small valve because all these things cost nothing to check. I never use an analog meter. It’s the first thing I do..Cheep tool issues are just that, issues.. Can deal with that it’s a separate deal anyways.. Gonna need it to fix it..anyways... No analog meters...

I didn’t look real hard, you can’t upload or refer to a factory schemo.. They will edit the post. The above shows the inside pretty good. You can draw your own schemo. I did both of my Carys.. Shoot they are burned in my head.
Have you done a visual inspection yet? Might be easy to see.
Second remove the bottom inspection cover turn it on and LOOK, no toughing.. You might see the problem. Be patient though..
NOW turn off the lights and look inside... I’ve seen a lot of stuff that way.. Low light and arcing. Bad solder joints, ect.
One hand in you pocket, ay.. no two handed handling anything, unless your ok with it.. they can bite, ..LOL
Again this is a pretty easy unit, look at it... I’ll give it a 4th grader rating, only because they are one messy design.. Just sloppy...sloppy wiring.
If your gonna work on it.. discharge the caps, ALL of them, even the little ones.. they can bite, and scare you. You can knock the amp off the bench... LOL, well maybe not...
Regards..
