Broken Mcintosh Meters

You'll need to determine if the meter itself is physically bad or the circuit driving it.

If you've got any sense of adventure, the first step would be to remove the cover and make sure a connection hasn't come loose.

Beyond that, you'll need test equipment, experience with electronics and probably a service manual.

If you're not capable, don't know anyone who is and don't have the funds for a service visit, you're probably stuck. At that point just be happy the unit plays and it's just a visual effect that's broken.

Hockey4496, I have the service manual for the MC2125. Send me a PM at sae_2300@optimum.net and I will reply with a copy of the SM. There are several stages (fullwave rectifier/over scale limiter/sample & hold/meter driver/between the output and meter, so a problem in any one of them could cause the meters to stop working.

Thanks guys for the feedback. I actually have the service manual, and am comfortable at all levels when it comes to electronics. Will I be able to just check each of those circuits along the way for continuity? Or is there some other equipment I would need to test their functionality?

Thanks again!
