RE: Help! Conrad Johnson PV2 relay not working

It's not a HV delaying relay. (at least in my PV2A). It's there to short the outputs,stopping thumps at turnon and turnoff.

Mine was not closing all the way, allowing turnon and turnoff noises to pass. The solution was to remove the plastic cover (very carefully) and burnish the contacts with a burnishing tool.

It sounds like your timing capacitor is bad. I doubt that the transistors are bad.
