Re: Looking for Chris Clifton
Well, just looking at the voltages at Q604 (the transistor with the heat sink),
Pin #17 (which should be the Collector voltage of +25vac) I¡¯m reading +60vac. When I put the positive probe on the

Re: FS: Aurora Organ, Nashville, TN
This organ is now FREE...family wants it gone. New owner to pick it up in Hermitage, TN 37076. It's on a cart, we can help get it out of the house; single level, no significant steps.

Re: Looking for Chris Clifton
Ned,
did you check the power supply voltages ?
Funnily, the other day I was able to download
the T-500 Service manual from archive.org.
Unfotunately I forgot to download part II, which contains

There should be a picture of the board with the components labelled in your service manual.

Re: Looking for Chris Clifton
Thanks. I¡¯ll check the transistor voltages but how do I know what transistor on the schematic is which transistor on the board?

Re: Looking for Chris Clifton
The transistors you've labelled 1 & 2 are part of the reverb drive amplifier. They provide the signal fed into the input end of the reverb springs. As such, they have no direct connection with the

Re: Looking for Chris Clifton
Hi Chris,
I¡¯ve checked all the transistors on the pwr & reverb amp board (with the organ off) using an analog multimeter on the 1x ohm setting. All check out ¡°ok¡± except the 2 metal can ones

Re: Looking for Chris Clifton
If I recall, you said that the loud background hum wasn't affected by the swell pedal. The signal at pin 8 goes through the swell before going to the actual input of the amplifier. As the hum level is

Re: Looking for Chris Clifton
I shouldn't worry too much about voltages at the percussion board to start with, a fault here would only affect the percussion voices.
Pin 8 on the power amp board is signal input to the amplifier.

Re: Looking for Chris Clifton
Hi Chris - I've started to check different voltages of 2 of the boards.? I started looking at the Percussion board.
At pin 10 with the perc. tab down I get 16 vdc? ? should be 16 vdc? ? ? ? ?

Re: Looking for Chris Clifton
Chris - I¡¯ve downloaded the schematics to study. The hum is present as soon as the organ is turned on. The hum¡¯s volume is not affected by the swell pedal. It also is not affected with the Reverb

Re: Looking for Chris Clifton
You will need a schematic, you can download some here, http://www.captain-foldback.com/Hammond_sub/schematics/t100series/. I'd start by trying to localise the fault. Does the hum volume vary with the
