Hey all,

I have a small (but major) problem with my Philips 7871 receiver. The
treble pot only controls the right channel. The left channel is stuck
on 0 dB: when i turn the pot, there is no change in the sound. The pot
works fine with the right channel and the bass pot works fine with both
channels. I have a feeling I need to buy a multimeter, but its been
many years since I used one and I've completely forgotten how to use it.
I also am looking for a service/repair manual for this, but I can't find
one. I took off the casing and looked around for any visual clues, but
everything looks fine inside. A few questions:

Is there anything else I should look for?

Anyone here have experience repairing this particular piece of
equipment?

If I bought a multimeter, how would I go about troubleshooting this
problem?

How much would it cost to repair this problem if I took it to a tech

Any idea where I could find a service/repair manual?

Please help!!!
