I found a zener diode to be faulty in my Vela dk-7000.
Both cassette players and all LEDs have power but no radio.
There isn't a service manual for these so I have no idea what value this is.
The only markings I can see is A3.
That doesn't really narrow down what the voltage and wattage should be.
I have a couple of 6v 1W zeners on hand, should I just try one of those?
The closest resistor to it is a 470 ohm if that makes a difference.
I vowed I'd never buy another box unless I could get the service manual for it, now I remember why.
Any help would be appreciated.
