Hello
Does anyone know if the O5 heads have a fuse? I have a head that is completely dead. The radio itself is fine as another O5 head works on it, and I have verfied that the radio and head is getting power and the remote cable is good. If the control head has a fuse, where would it be located?
-Thanks

Yes there's a fuse. Not sure where it is off the top of my head, you'd need the detailed service manual for the board layout. In the meantime, some more troubleshooting is possible. Does the control head pull any power at all when you power it up? It should draw about 100 milliamps. My suspicion is you will find the fuse is fine, and the control head has other gremlins. Of the hundreds of O5 heads that have come across my bench, I can count on one hand the number of heads with blown fuses. It's quite rare for it to blow

Escomm: Do you happen to have that in PDF by some chance? I don't think my shop has it.
