I have a Technics SA - DX750 Amp Everytime I turn it on I get an error message F70 and then it requests that I turn the power off. This is all it does now, so sound. How do I solve this issue I have not checked the fuses inside. Thank you, Lynne

Ok thanks, I have been wondering what the F70 meant for the longest. How do know what the fuses look like?

Hi!

The F70 error certainly indicates a blown fuse inside.
The real problem is why the fuse is blown: there are only two possible reasons
1. there is a short circuit on the output (lines or speakers)
2. you have a blown output transistor (and that means some work and skills to replace).


To be sure, please change the fuse with a same rated fuse (buy more than one because it can blow again). Disconnect the speakers and turn the amp on. If the fuse blows again, it is sure something wrong with the output transistors. If the fuse remains ok, then please check all the wiring to the speakers.

Hope it helped.

Regards,

Bogdan

F70 displays after about 5 min of use.

According to Technics reference manual, turn the unit off, unplug for a few, plug in, turn unit on. Consult your "dealer"(authorized repair person, i guess) if light remains on. But doesn't say what f70 means, or associated with.
Unplug and open up the unit, and check the internal fuses on the circuit board. Also check for proper speaker wire hook up. Re-seat the connections. Visibly check the speaker wire runs for shorts, cracked casing, cat/dog chewing. etc.

Hope this helps.

On switching my technics sa-dx750 it says switching off overload

The question is what is causing the overload? The power supply or the output devices on the heat sink?
If you have accidently shorted a speaker wire, then the answer will be output devices, otherwise it could be anything in the power section. You may find a burnt or damged device with either of the causes.

Problem with Technics SA-DX850

SA-DX750 (sister Model to SA-DX850). Showing error code F70, after a few minutes running. Checking the power rails revealed +5VA and +5VD, on the Digital Circuit Board 'A', dropping to about 2V, when fault occured. F5, T1A, on the Sub-Transformer Circuit 'M', was subject to occasional blowing. The problem was traced to an intermittent break, in the printed circuit board conductor, in the vicinity of Q1702 (+5VD regulator) collector, on the Digital Circuit Board 'A'.. Repairing this cured the problem. Note that removing F5 (above), or disconnecting CN702, CN1000A or CN904B, on the Digital Circuit board 'A', also causes this error code to be displayed. Failure of the audio output ICs, IC651 & IC801, is apparently the usual reason for this error code being dsiplayed, but it is worth checking the power rails viz. +/- 25V (Fuses F3 & F4, T6.3A, on Sub-Transformer Circuit 'M') +/- 55V, +/- 14V etc.
