Here is the corrected schematic.

This diagram shown below is *WRONG. DONT USE IT!* Its the exact same
as a TL922.
I'll get the proper circuit drawn and send it out.

/Which means to me, that you are going to do other work? So what does
this mean to you?
What I said is exactly what I mean. If a tube shorts, (filament to
grid which is the only way I have seen a 3-500 tube short, and they
do it often), it shorts the 120 volt DC bias and relay supply to
ground, and burns up the filament transformer, because it has no fuse
(fuse wont protest it anyway, putting a fuse in the primary does not
keep it from burning up). Every wonder why so many TL-922 filament
transformers go bad? This is why they do.
Only fix is to re-wire the relay bias switching.
*Bottom line...*
if you wire it like this, (from an SB220 schemaic) it will save your
filament transformer.

A perhaps important point but I am not sure what it has to do with
the fan replacement?
Maybe you would just like to point us at a solution to the mentioned
problem rather than have us reinvent the wheel

Re-wiring the 120 volt cut off bias.� If a tube shorts, it takes
out the filament transformer.
Study the schematic.

OK after a bit of sleuthing and help from the A/C repair guy next
door who has a meter that measured the airflow I found two
probable exact replacements for the fan in the TL-922A... Which
suggested that this was an ~53CFM fan that originally was spec'd
at 100V/7W probably 1700RPM. Size: 120mm x 120mm x 38mm
The first from Mouser is a Sanyo Denki fan #109S006 a very quiet
fan at 28dBa. Problem is that it is a non stocked item with a
minimum order quantity 40pcs at $24.76 ( extended order price of
$990 !) ... deal breaker for sure
With the spec sheet for the Sanyo in hand I could now look for
other equivalents ! . I found the following on Amazon.
"AC Infinity LS1238",� 62 CFM @32dba� 120V/8W (probably 7W at
100V). $14.99 free overnight delivery ...Bingo
Easy replacement. The new fan though rated at 62CFM measured
closer to 55CFM installed in the amp. The old fan would raise the
noise level at the operating position when switched on by
approximately 12dba as measured with two different phone apps. The
new fan switched on raised the noise level by only 2db when
switched on a big improvement over the old worn out one. Air exit
temperature was identical to the old fan at around 30C at idle and
35C key down for 2 minutes.
So TL-922 owners� print this info out and store it with your manual
Tomorrow I will detail the rest of the TL-922A makeover, new tube
sockets, new band switch, new tubes and a W8JI grid grounding party
