It's an NPN transistor

Transistor isolated from circuitry (or removed) & Meter on "Diode Test:"
B to E = infinity with leads one way - a ~.4 reading leads the other way;
B to C = infinity with leads one way - a ~.4 reading leads the other way;
C to E = infinity with leads either way.

With Q801 removed & testing in diode mode:
C to E measures infinite with leads one way, & 0.6 with leads reversed and same for B to C.
B to E measures 0.25 with either polarity.
In R mode:
C to E measures infinite, & 1.6 Megohm with leads reversed and same for B to C. B to E measures 487 ohm with either polarity.

Should Q801 be replaced and not IC803?

Q801 is BAD - period. I'd get and replace both. When new transistor arrives compare new to old. Smile

Replaced Q801, but still no power up Crying or Very sad with same clicking behavior as before. New Q801 measured infinite/0.68 from B to C and B to E and infinite/infinite from C to E (good measurements and different than the old, bad part).

What about IC803 Question

Have not replaced IC803. The DC voltages measure 8.7v on pins 1,2,4,& 5, and 327v on pin3 (essentially same as before changing Q801). Pulled the datasheet http://pdf1.alldatasheet.com/datasheet-pdf/view/38478/SANKEN/STR58041.html
which shows the equivalent internal circuit.
With IC803 removed in diode mode measures between pins
3 and 4: 0.5 and infinite w/leads reversed (should be a C-E junction)
2 and 1: 0.9 and infinite w/leads reversed (should be a C-E junction)
4 and 2: 0.01 and 0.01 (should be a C-E junction)
3 and 2: 0.5 and infinite (should be a C-B junction).

A Collector to Emitter junction (with NO damper diode or any other internal resistors, etc.) on a DVM set on diode check should read INFINITE in both polarities - device OUT OF Circuit. Pin 2 to 4 alone is one junction B-E on transistor on the left (Unless you stiil have in circuit and something's in parallel? Wink

All these readings are with the IC completely removed from ckt. in DVM diode mode.
If pins 2 to 4 are a B-E junction, then the readings still look no good anyway, and also no good between 3 to 4 and 2 to 1 (if these are pure C-E junctions?). 2 to 5 measures 0.02 w/either polarity. Is this IC bad?
