Will do that this evening UK time, Bob. Thanks for the pointers.

Hi,
Please measure the secondary voltage of the transformer as it feeds into the diode bridge, (maybe from each fuse to ground? And also the DC voltage across C13 and C14, the 4700 and 2200 uF caps. Also, please measure the AC voltage across those caps, in case there is a large amount of ripple. If we have all of those numbers we can probably tell what's going on. If one of the transformer secondary fuses is blown, you will still get voltage, just not as much.

In my ongoing P6 power supply saga, have got UK transformer hooked up ok but test points are reading
+5 = 3.6
+15 = 10.8
-15 = -10.7
Is this likely a problem with the transformer or more likely the voltage regulating components on the 376 board? Rectifiers shot?
Have tried adjusting trimpots but that does not make result in a noticeable voltage difference on the test points.
Have tested the two main Caps and they are within tolerance.
Any help or ideas appreciated.
Cheers
