Rowe CD 100A
« on: October 08, 2017, 05:36:53 pm »
I'm new here so I hope this post is OK. I have a Rowe CD100A Jukebox it was playing fine and then the sound went down real low and was distorted. Pulled the amp and all 4 8 amp fuses were bad.
What would cause this to just happen??

Thanks   Dave

Sounds like all four of the output transistors are bad. Did you have any external speakers connected to the jukebox?

Hi Dave,

I agree with Ken, it sounds as if you have overloaded the four outut transistors, if you have a transistor checker then take the transistors out one at a time and check them.

Hi Dave,

Replace the four fuses with 5 amp fuses, if they blow again you will have to send your amplifier to a Rowe Ami specialist for testing/repair.
