I had (or thought I had) a bad HOT due to the following ohm meter results
Took out Q11 (HOT), and checked it with my ohms meter. Results:
B-E (+ on B): 51 Ohms
B-E (- on B): 51 Ohms
B-C (+ on B): 1.78M Ohms
B-C (- on B): Open
C-E (+ on E): 1.78M Ohms
C-E (- on E): Open
I assumed that the B-E junction was shorted, but when I ordered a replacement ( 2sd1398 ), I have the same readings as above!
Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Jim
