Yesterday when I started my system, the subwoofer failed to turn on.
There is no power light. I checked for line voltage, it was 119VAC, and verified that I had a sub line output from my receiver with an oscilloscope. The sub is
about 3 years old. Is their an internal fuse to check? Any other suggestions
would be welcome.

    You've got an oscilloscope and a VOM, so you must know a few things about electronics. Why not open it up and take a look around.

    I was just seconds from doing that, but realized if I could find my receipt It might still be under warranty. I was hoping someone has had a similar problem and maybe had some pointers while I procrastinated opening the box.

    I may do it later as I still can't find the receipt.

    Thanx

    This problem has showed up before. Just give Polk customer service a call and they'll sort it all out for you. They're pretty awesome when it comes to providing great support for their products. You'll probably have to pull the amp (about 6 screws and a couple connectors - quite easy) and ship it to them.

    I called them today and they were extremely helpful. They would look
    at it and consider a warranty repair without my reciept.

    Thanks
