Hey guys. I have an Infinity 255a 5 channel amplifier that I purchased back in 2000. It turned out to be somewhat of a lemon and malfunctioned twice (and repaired) before the warranty was up (it would cycle on and off). The third time that it acted up I just removed the entire amplified system from the car. I kept the amp though because since the warranty was up, I had always wanted to tinker with it to see if I could repair it myself.
The only thing is that I cannot get the components out of the metal case. There is a slot that the green board on the inside slides along, but it seems to be stuck. There is a white grease along this “track”.
Does anyone have any ideas how to get this out of the metal casing? I was thinking of using a slide hammer to try to jar it loose.
Here is a pic of the amplifier. I can get some more in depth ones if anyone has any experience with this.
