I have a Peavey 210TX Combo bass amp, and it won't turn on. I was wondering, how can you tell if the problem is the fuse... or maybe something worse? I checked the fuse and it didn't look like anything was wrong with it. I'd hate to have to buy a new amp, so please help.
Did you plug your amp into a live outlet? Not trying to be a wiseguy here. Test the outlet with something else to make sure its live, and that you didnt pop a circuit breaker somewhere in the house.
Is the fuse clear or full of sand? It's either the fuse or a vital part (bad). If the fuse is clear (you can see through the glass) it's blown.
It was a milky white color, I coulden't see through it. So I thought it might be ... well a vital part... and if it is I'm going to have to get a new amp.
If the fuse isnt the problem..... then something worse is the problem. And it'd cost me more to get it fixed, than to just get a new one.
Really? wow..... maybe it's just a dead switch. 4 bucks. dont count it dead just because it's not a blown fuse.
If its like a standard automotive fuse, glass cylinder with metal ends, and you can't see thru it then its bad.
