Good afternoon all
I am getting back into my chassis of my radio after a near six month break, and I have question about a resistor that reads 0.
Section 4 of the troubleshooting page shows R400. When I started restoration the original resistor read 0. But after I replaced it with the correct value, it still reads 0. Continuity is fine.
C402 appears to be "parallel" to the resistor, terminating to the same terminal.
Question: Can a bad capacitor be making the resistor read zero? Replacing the capacitors here are not an issue, but I am wanting to make sure I don't have other problems further back. Note: I don't have a capacitor tester.
Thanks,
Terry
