Re: Sony Home Cinema Amp STR KSL5 problem



Could be any of the 5 output amps, the sensing circuits or the CPU IC. You'll need a schematic to troubleshoot it. All 5 amps have a transistor Q401-Q405 2SA1162 (Protect) near them which monitor current flow to that output amp IC. These 5 all connect together to Q406 near IC321 on the main board.
 
Q406 should have +5V on the collector. That goes to pin 2 of IC321, out pin 3 of IC 321, then out connector D to Digital board, thru R112 to pin 53 of  IC101 (CPU IC) on the digital board.
 
If you have +5V on pin 53, the CPU is bad. Part # 6-800-673-01 IC101 MB90553ABPF-G-209-BND. You won't, so you have to find out where the problem is.
