Buzz Tests or where you apply a insulated tool to the circuits, a buzz will be heard. If it buzzers in the good channel it should in the bad. Ignore the power supply and don't short any parts out!

It's more likely to be a fuse that's gone. If so it could be caused by faulty device on the heat sink. The only device that converts power is a Transformer.

Reconnect all the connections and check the connection wires. OK.
