[QUOTE="1200GXman, post: 1124111, member: 17884"] Oooo, now you got me worried. Well, it was working fro at least half an hour when I tested it apon receiving. The water story probably happened years ago in it's life. As I saw some videos of people using a garden hose to wash PCBs, I would assume if it was properly dried it would be fine. I will clean over weekend the bottom and inside of the amp. Found some surgical alcohol for the bottom clean. Top I will use soft paint brush and vacuum cleaner. From the top I can't see any water damage to the PCB. Everything is dry, dusty and no white residue. So I agree with you that maybe the water dripped by luck ontop of the heat sink and went through the holes. Must I later replace the heat sink paste or leave it as is for now. Don't want to fiddle unnecessary where not needed. [/QUOTE]
