SYMPTOM
High output voltage
1. Attempt to turn off Q1 by
(higher than rating)
shorting emitter-to-col-
lector of Q6.
2. Measure voltage at
base of Q6.
Low output voltage
1. Attempt to turn on Q1 by
(lower than rating)
disconnecting emitter of
Q6.
2. Attempt to turn off of Q6
by shorting point
3. Eliminate current limit
circuit as a source of
trouble by disconnecting
anode of CR9.
4. Measure voltage at pin 3
of U10.
STEP
ACTION
Set output voltage at 16V.
