* Volume adjustment on amplifier is correctly adjusted
* Source is ON and playing.
Engine Noise From Speaker(s)
> Turn source OFF, Disconnect RCA cables at amplifier. If noise stops, check equipment & cables leading to amplifier.
> RCA cables are of good quality with no breakage to internal shields
> RCA cables from source to amplifier are not run alongside any power cables.

DISASSEMBLY
1. Remove the two screws at opposite ends on the bottom of the heat sink.
2. Remove the end panel on the Input side only, four Phillips screws.
3. Slide both pieces of silver trim off the heat sink.
4. Remove the top cover; it will be attached with a cable so unplug at Molex connector CN1

4. Remove the top cover; it will be attached with a cable so unplug at Molex connector CN1
5. Remove the Output end panel, five Phillips screws.
6. Remove the terminal screws to the Power connections, and top row only of the speaker terminals.
7. Remove the remaining three Phillips screws on the bottom of the heat sink. There is a nut which may spin on the machine screw; look at the top of the PCB.
8. Remove all Phillips screws holding the Aluminum transistor clamps on; remove the clamps.
9. Remove the Amplifier PCB; seven Philips screws. The PCB will then pull straight up and off the MAIN PCB.
10. Remove the single Phillips screws holding the 2 terminal temp. Switch in place.
11. Slide the complete PCB out of the heat sink channel.

Access to the output MOSFETS Q2- Q6, Q3A, Q4A, Q5A, Q6A ,Q8-Q14
Follow steps #1-4, and 6, above.
Follow step #8 above to remove the Amplifier PCB
> Remove the gray heat sink from the PCB by grasping and pulling it straight out – it is only held on by friction from the white heat sink compound.
> The (16) output MOSFETS are underneath the rectangular insulator on the PCB.
