      Maybe you can do this as a start. Purchase a Receptacle Tester sim to this item.     As you can see from the legend it will give you a good indication of the wiring status of the receptacle you plug it into.   Having a Receptacle Tester I think is a must to have in your tool bag for a start.

      You know what they say... Patience is a virtue. I did get a response! And they must be swamped. I'm scheduled for November.    Anybody have an idea on mitigating the transformer hum in the meantime? I did read somewhere that one user found that rotating the plug 180 degrees reduced their hum, but my plug is an AC polarity plug and only goes in one way. Was the inverting m-1.0t have a non-polarity AC plug?

      @Keyman69, Quoting descriptions from another member Dominic, @zumbini,    How we got to the different versions of the PM-1.5...    "fan failures were common in early PM-1.5s". These amps were recalled and repaired and the revised amp sold as the PM-1.5a / PM-1200."   "The PM-1200 and it's predecessor the PM-1.5 are basically an M-1.5 with larger output devices, balanced inputs and fan cooling. Should be no surprise that they sound alike."   We love repair threads..., and lots of pictures.   Consider posting yours in the Amp forum! 😉 others may benefit, and yet others, may chime in with help.

      Welcome, @Keyman69, glad you found us.   Also, to support your project, be sure to download the service manual.  The Carver PM 1.5 has two incarnations..., the second to address issues in the first version - both are good - but the reading will help identify which you have, and how to proceed.    Check out these two Service Manuals as your proceed.
