applied to the LN-8 at the input
receptacle. Pin “C” lead #31 and
pin “D” lead #32.
4. Check the 1/2 amp fuse located
on the relay board. Replace if
necessary.
5. If the LN-8 has a variable voltage
board and the power source is a
constant current supply, check to
make sure the switch on the vari-
able voltage board is in the “VV”
position.
6. If the switch on the variable
board is in the “VV” position,
