Well, that 16v is generated in the coupling transformer. So for that to be too high, all other stuff being good, the primary has to be getting too large a signal, and you have evidence of that. So the thing to do is try and figure that out....

Is the power supply too high?

or

is there something making the primary signal too high?

I am leaning towards double checking the power supply, that 125, and what else may be associated with it, be it larger or smaller sources that may be there.... Please post the power supply section when you get a chance, ( Isee it thanks ! ) and measure the different sources available....

And just in case the power supply is pumping out too much voltage, lets limit how long you keep the set on to just 10 minutes or so during each measurement period.

Be careful when measuring the power supply, if its regulated, you don't want to accidentally short anything that will fry anything in there....
