CA 540a Ver 2 amp Cap5 problem

[crang]

Hi all tried searching to see if I can get help with my amp, turned on to listen tonight and when selcting CD I got the 3 flash caps protection light, I checked all the obvious, speaker shorts, In the end I disconnected all leads, still the same result.
Has anyone else had this problem?

Thanks in anticipation

If you're satisfied that there are no problems with your speakers or cabling, I suggest you contact Cambridge Audio customer support. You will need to register first.

There are also instructions on the site for reducing the sensitivity of the cut out here:

However, if this issue has just started after a period of trouble-free use, it suggests that there is a problem, so I would strongly advise you NOT to change the sensitivity of the cut out without first consulting Cambridge.

Let us know how you get on.
