4.

At J21or J18 on the power PCB, do a check for continuity on pin 1 (red) and pin 2 (black). Refer 
to 

Figure 25

. Is there continuity on both pins?

If yes, there is possibly a problem with the wiring harness for the machine interface 
receptacle. Replace the machine interface receptacle with voltage divider PCB assembly 
(228697 for Powermax65/85 SYNC; 528045 for Powermax105 SYNC).

If no, there is possibly a problem with the power PCB. Replace the power PCB.*

* The problem will more often be with the power PCB. In unusual situations, there can be a problem with the 

DSP PCB. If possible, install a different DSP PCB that is known to operate correctly before you replace the 
power PCB to see if the problem goes away.
