Solved! Power supply voltage for Bose lifestyle 5

[Oletrapper]

My power supply is metering 14.82vac. Is this correct?

Doesn't seem to be correct as research indicates the following:

Model 5 music center
Power pack power rating
USA/Canada: 120V~ 60 Hz 25VA
Europe: 230V~ 50 Hz 25VA
Australia: 240V~ 50 Hz 25VA
Dual Voltage: 120V~ 60 Hz 25VA and
230V~ 50 Hz 25VA

The power supply will usually be marked with the output voltage, whether it's AC or DC, and the output current. Most power supplies will read higher when not under load. If it's marked 15v then 14.82 would be close enough but it might read lower under load.

Thanks AAP, It is marked 120VAC in and 12VAC out. Plugged into wall and metering at plug it is 14VAC+. Have some bad capacitors on LCD board. Just don't want to blow anything up after replacing capacitors. Thanks again. OT
