I don't think it has tubes. If you have a voltage meter, check to see if you have your plus and minus 15 volts and 7 volts. If you don't, the problem can be in your voltage regulator.

2003 sebring lxi

Two voltage circuits at starter motor. One comes from the battery, hot all the time. The other circuit goes hot with key in the start position and is wired through neutral switch for automatic tranny. The starter motor should ground through engine block. You can use a test light to check for voltage. Any testing at starter motor make sure tranny is in park or neutral and parking brake is set.
The problem could be your neutral switch, but, w/o testing, I can't be sure?

I just bought a 98 concorde lxi and no sound coming out of the speakers, radio comes on and shows channels just no sounds

Hello georgouseyes,

The problem could be in the output from your receiver to the amp or in the amp itself.

First check to see if the amp powers up. If it doesn't, check the main power fuse (usually located under the hood near the battery). Also check the power and ground connections on both ends.

If the main fuse checks OK, check both onboard fuses. There's 2 35A fuses on the far right.

If the amp powers up OK and the onboard fuses are not defective, it's possibly the output from your receiver or line output converter. Replace the RCA cables with a known good pair. If there's still no sound, I'd suspect that the amp itself is defective.

Hope this helps.

No output from my receiver

Some of the older radios are worth money, seeing how they are antiques, so I would research yours, make sure how much it's worth, check tube prices, try to find one on ebay or some other place, and repair it, because chances are it could be worth money.

hope this helps you out

Sansui g5500 receiver keeps blowing fuse 5amp.

I cannot seem to find any useful information for so I'll just say this from personal experiences repairing amps/receivers. Unfortuneatley there is no good news for you.

The only reason a fuse would keep blowing is if a upstream component is bad or there is a short to ground on the circuit card. If g5500 is a tube set you may get lucky as tubes either open circuit or short circuit. My suggestion, if tube, would be to power up the unit after taking the cover off and notice if there are any tubes that light up at all, will be a quick look and a number of fuses.

BUT FIRST. BEFORE YOU TAKE THE COVER OFF ANY UNIT, UNPLUG FROM WALL AND LET IT SIT FOR 2 HOURS. This gives the unit time to discharge the large capacitors in the power supply. After you wait, then take cover off being very carefull. Notice where there are capacitors (look like miniature coke cans) or any other component, you really want to avoid touching anything, And talking about touchingif you touch a tube wash your hand real well or preferably wear gloves. The oil from our skin will cause the tube to bust because of the interaction.

Another thing you can do is follow the above procedure to remove the cover but don't turn on the power.Carefully remove all the tubes. The unit might "power on" but can't be used. This would indicate one of the tubes is bad. If it does shut-down immediately, shop time.

Pure new-age component only amps/receivers are a lot harder to diagnose as there is solder work involved to test the individual part. So this need to be done in a shop as well.

I would love to help but can't, I can only guide you a bit.

Good Luck!!!
Jeff
