The TX-6500 II features a beautifully illuminated analogue tuner scale. The stereo indicator uses an HA1196 MPX chip, where pin 9 supplies a ground connection through a resistor to activate the 6V indicator bulb. The bulb receives a constant 12V in FM mode, which can lead to premature failure. The MPX chip output switches low when a stereo signal is detected. A faulty internal switch-to-ground transistor in the HA1196 can prevent the stereo indicator from functioning correctly.
This unit been cleaned and is functioning properly.
