Hi, friend! I got a trouble with the gain pot from the drive chanel of that amp and I need replace it, do you know what is the type and model of that pot? Thank you so much for this video!
grateful It was the noise. I bought it used and decided to repair it rather than return it because I liked it. If the fan quit all together, I’m sure the amp would have overheated and quit working. I didn’t notice the noise in all the din of Guitar Center but once I got it home I did. It was intermittent but an easy fix so I kept and repaired it.
Played through it today and it still sounds great. Compared favorably to all 3 of my all tube Marshall’s. Thanks to the opinions of 12 year old experts these things can be had for chump change by the dozens and I am there to scoop them up for a fraction of their original price. You just have to know how to dial them in. Check out this guys video. m.ua-cam.com/video/kXID5J3cKBY/v-deo.html
After 10 years of owning and playing it my AVT50 i just found out it had a Fan LOL
So obviously was working OK lol I traded this amp but was a good learning experience replacing the fan.
That was a quick and easy fix.
Could have done it cheaper too but I wanted to make sure I got a good fan.

Sorry but no. I just googled the part for this repair and shared my experience.
Ia that a DC or AC fan? the voltage is 12volt DC ?
Sorry, I don’t remember and the amp was traded long ago.
@WickedFester Do you what size the screws are on the top of the amp? The screws that hold the Chassis?
Sorry, no. I just used the ones that came with it.
Why did you replace the fan? What was wrong? Mine quit working and this amp doesnt have a tube, so Im trying to figure out how to fix it.
Sorry for the late reply, just noticed this. The fan had a bad bearing and was making a loud honking noise and intermittently working.
@@WickedFesterBand Did your amp turn off because of the fan going bad? Or was it just the noise bothering you?

can i just disable the fan if i just quietly practice at home?
Nope. Would likely overheat and ruin the amp.
I need to replace the MG - 50U transformer shown in the video. Does anyone have specs or part number for this transformer?
hey, so what are the specs for this fan? Thanks, man
here is where I ordered it. www.amprepairparts.com/marshallfans.htm
the fan isn´t the crap, the whole amp itself it´s the crap
