Too bad that Goldmund has decided to stop producing the Job amplifiers. They are darn good amplifiers and a great value.

Hi all again,

I finally received the Amp.
The speakers are getting delivered tomorrow so I cannot test it yet.

However the power LED is not turning on when I flip the switch.
I do hear the relay switch.

Does anyone know what could be the problem? Could the led have come loose during transport?

Kind Regards,
Adriano

Maybe you could open up the amp and see if the LED light is hooked up. Maybe the connection came loose.

Hello joeinid,

I will try that tomorrow. I do not have the right allen key right now. I know nothing about electronics but I should be able to figure out if a wire came loose.

Thank you

Yes, you should be able to see if it's connected or a wire is loose. Just a thought. Good luck!

Good news. It was indeed the LED that had come loose. No issue with the wires, just the glue that holds the LED in place got unstuck.
I placed the LED back for now but I am not sure how to glue it back on. What kind of glue can be used inside an amp?

The Job225 sound great for now. I have not set up my system as I am about to move into a new flat.

I will experiment with power cables and the fuse swap and report back.

Congratulations!

So there was glue that held the light in place and it came loose? Maybe to make it easy, just use a piece of black electrical tape and stick it on or get an epoxy glue. Epoxy glue usually comes in a 2 part mix. Some are slow working and some are fast working. I’m sure you only need a dot of glue. Something called Duco cement which is a clear liquid should work too. Ask your local supply store.
