Hello Everyone,

I am back in SA after 10 years, I hope everyone has been well.

I have been doing some maintenance work on my Fathers Marantz 2220B.

I replaced the Fuse Lights with some LED fuse lights that I found on TEMU.

Here is the link

It took 1 1/2 weeks to arrive and shipping was free.

I am quite happy with the what was delivered.

Upon opening the Marantz I noticed that someone had broken the Light PCB holder and did a quick fix with glue.

I modeled a piece in Fusion 360 and 3D printed it, it works quite well.

I sanded off the broken part and glued it to the original plastic part on the tuner.

If anyone else has this issue I have uploaded the 3D model to Printables.

I tried to add an LED on the stereo light indicator but the circuit is a little strange. When the tuner is in AUX or Tuner input mode the LED pulses at around 1Hz even tho the multimeter reads 10VDC constant.

When I set the Tuner to FM the stereo light does not engage at all even with a multi-meter I don't see a change on the voltage.

I suspect the stereo detection circuit is malfunctioning.

Here are some photos.
