I'm in the process of restoring a Zenith console that was my grandparents. It hasn't run since the mid 50's so I have replaced all of the cacacitors, both wax and electrolytic, with new units. Last night I plugged in the set and all I got was a very low hum when I placed my ear up to the speaker. It made no difference if I moved the volume control. The hum is barely audible. All tubes glowed, some brighter than others. Is there a step-by-step process that I should follow to diagnose the problem? I have a basic understanding of electronics and can read a schematic but that's about it.

any help is appreciated.

Tom
