Thanks George, and Colin, for your advice – nice to know I can probably replace 
a fuse though getting to it seems a little daunting. Thank you.

Subject: Re: [Frameworks] Pageant AV 12 E6 sound problem

 

I could not locate a diagram for the Pageant amp but most of the projector amps 
of that period powered the exciter lamp with a high frequency oscillator. It 
was difficult to generate a pure DC voltage for the lamp. 

The high frequency ac was above what the ear could detect. If you can find a 
tube tester test the tubes or look for one that has no glow when viewed in the 
dark. If it has a transistor amp ignore this advice.

If you can locate a diagram forward it to me and I will see if I can be more 
specific.

Hi Frameworkers, I have a Pageant AV 12 E6 where the optical sound bulb is not 
coming on. I’ve replaced it with a new one and it’s still not working (the old 
one didn’t look burned out either). I know the amplifier is working as I hear a 
healthy hum when I turn it on, and the flash from my camera even caused a loud 
pop when I snapped this photo, so I know the reader sensor itself is working. 
Any idea what could be causing the bulb not to come on? There’s a “circuit 
breaker” button on the panel but it doesn’t seem to do anything when I press 
it. Is there a fuse somewhere inside that might need replacement?
