Error F61 Panasonic Sa-ak340
26 pin audio power module IC501 (in the powered subwoofer SB-WA340) but the problem is panasonic sa-ak18 f61 error still there. All pins are definitely getting power, I've verified it several times. The fan works fine when powered externally with f61 icd 10 9V battery. I read somewhere that IC502 could also throw the code, but I'm not sure how to test it. 502 is an 8 pin IC type 5218A. Anyone have any advice? Thanks!

I've replaced several power supply ICs (in addition to the power control module), to no avail. There are several burnt looking areas on PCB near power supply ICs, and I changed them with identical ICs from the same board http://www.electronicspoint.com/threads/panasonic-f61-code.229785/ of another unit. Still no good. I've also ruled out the active subwoofer since I've tried it with two different subwoofers and the problem is still there. It's definitely on the main PCB, since I've swapped every other board/cable with those from the other unit. I have a service manual with wiring schematics for the unit, but I can't attach it here due to file size limitations.I can send the service manual if anyone has a clue or thinks they can help.

I will post a photo in a separate thread. So far I've replaced IC2,3,4,5,6,7, and 8. Also Q752,Q750, and several others. Now I'm suspecting IC701 Digital sound controller.It appears that IC701 is connected to the active subwoo
