testing a crossover

Hi guys, sorry for the very late reply in my/your quest to sort this out,ive done a couple of thing since, taken advice on multi meter/s, fitting fully charged battery's in the digital and analogue multi meters,both tested by using an 8ohm resistor, I use for running in component/gear, just incase, removed all wire to and from the x over and cleaned the board,and flowed every joint,so there no chance of dry joints and shorts,also i have done a continuity test from every component lead to pcb tracks,all joint good, please find results of questions asked.
multi meter set to ohms-
between mid pos and neg  2.7 ohms
between tw   pos and neg  0.002 ohms
mid/high inputs  OL {held on for 5 secs}nothing changes
mid/high inputs {reversed} OL{held on for 5 secs}nothing changes
when run with one amp,in bi-wire mode both pos are NOT connected the same goes for the neg wires,the amp has 2 sets of switched speakers terminals,i use one set for the bass and the other set for the mid/high,so the two speaker cables do not touch each other 
resistor showing short{5w2R2J},which i measured using continuity mode,just above IP neg,when doing an ohms test is reads 2.3ohms

Diode test on mid/high -OL
when reversed is flashes 2.2xx,then goes to OL
every time i reverse leads it flashes something {2.2xx}not sure its voltage,it doesnt tell me that

further to reply to imhififan1 im not sure how to test for what your asking 
" Without drivers connected,
The HF measurement should equal to the DC resistance of the 0.22mH inductor.
The MF measurement should equal to the DC resistance of the 2.5mH inductor + 2.2Ω.".
Not sure what 0.22mH is and also 2.5mH inductor +2.2 ohms,i know what the inductors are but not sure on mH.
Also i have found that one of the capacitors has a dead short short when tested in dioode mode,{still soldered into pcb},on both x-overs, when the rest show OL,not sure if that has a bearing on anything, just throwing it out there.
Any guys sorry again for the late reply,i hope your all still speaking to me, thankyou again for all your help.
Kind regards
Mk
ps i have posted some more pic of cap showing short and the resistor ive tested
thx again MK

between mid pos and neg 2.7 ohms

Okay... before you said that you were getting 0Ω across the MF +/- outputs with the driver disconnected. Is this the same measurement? If it is then it's close enough not to worry about for this exercise. As imhififan said:

The MF measurement should equal to the DC resistance of the 2.5mH inductor + 2.2Ω.".

Take into account there's a bit of tolerance on those resistors as well as the accuracy of your meter.

Not sure what 0.22mH is and also 2.5mH inductor +2.2 ohms,i know what the inductors are but not sure on mH.

Although the inductors will have some DC resistance you can pretty much ignore it for the purposes of this excercise as long as you're in the ball park of the resistor values.

Also i have found that one of the capacitors has a dead short short when tested in dioode mode,{still soldered into pcb},on both x-overs, when the rest show OL,not sure if that has a bearing on anything, just throwing it out there.

If that's the 6µF cap then the reading is correct as it's in parallel with the 2.5µH inductor which will have very low resistance at DC.

If I've understood you correctly then the tests don't seem to have turned up any results that would cause the amplifier to fail.
Maybe someone else will spot something I've missed... or maybe the tech didn't find the real fault in the amp when it was sent in the first time.

i think we may have a misunderstanding some times about ,when i use a diode test and ohms test,i think i haven't explained it well enough,or used the wrong test for finding this fault
originally when i tested the speakers{in the beginning}there was NO reading on ohms for the test when testing the mid/hi speakers on the terminal speaker posts on the back of the speakers,
please see first tests

what i see,is that when testing a speaker from the speaker cable posts,disconnecting from the amp,i should see how many ohms the speakers are,in this case they are 8 ohms speakers,and i have tested them on other ocassions,after re-wiring them once another time when i re-capped them,just as a check for shorts or problems and they have always read in the ball park of between 7.8ohms and 8ohms,for both bass and mid/hi ,now it doesnt read that,the bass is ok but the mid/high reads 0.0ohms,i only checked them,when my technican asked me to after the first time he repaired the ampand it blew,and sure enough there was a problem,does this throw any light on what your thinking,or have i really badly explained the problem,really sorry if i have.

Okay... I think I am having trouble following. Also there might be a bit of confusion around resistance (DC) and impedance (AC). When you read the resistance across the loudspeaker terminals it has very little to do with the nominal impedance of the speakers (this is even true if you measure across the driver itself). You have a high pass filter on both the mid (12µF) and the tweeter (4.2µF) so if everything is working correctly you should get an open circuit when you attempt to measure resistance across the loudspeaker posts with everything connected.

I’ll tell you what I think I’ve understood and you put me right if I’ve misunderstood:

1) Original test with everything assembled showed 0Ω resistance across the MF/HF +/- terminals on the back of the speaker.
2) Those terminals connect directly to IP+ and IP- on the crossover PCB.
3) With the crossover disconnected the DC resistance between IP+ and IP- was open circuit.
If points 1-3 are correct and you’ve put it back together and measured 0Ω across the loudspeaker terminals then there’s a short somewhere between the terminals and where the wires connect to IP+ and IP-.

4) With everything disconnected from the crossover you measured the resistance across the copper you have marked M+ and M- and got 0Ω.
5) According to the schematic M+ and M- should be connected (at DC) via 2.5µH inductor (of negligible DC resistance) and a 2.2Ω resistor.
6) On your most recent test you measured 2.7Ω.
If point 4 was true then you’d most certainly have overloaded your amp and would have got no sound from the driver... however the most recent measurement shows no such problem.
