Cary Audio SLA-70B amplifier

I have no schematics for my SLA-70B and Cary Audio no longer offer technical support on this very old [27 year old] amp.  The LED light on the front panel of my SLA-70B Signature Amp does not work [does not light up]. Upon my opening the bottom panel I noticed that the positive side of the LED was “just hanging in the air.  Also a resistor 100K 5W was totally blown up so I cannot take a reading of it at all.

[I don't know why I cannot include an illustration of the issue in question]

The negative of the LED is connected. The positive (orange wire) is just floating loose.  There is a resistor 100K 5W which is connected to GRD and the other side has blown up.

I do hope someone can allow me to upload an illustration. It will definitely help in solving this issue.
Thanks, richfrank

I'm not following you. You have the value, what else do you need? Draw your own schemo, I did with both my Cary's. They just aren't that complicated.. 

You don't know where the wire goes?

OR

You just want a schematic?

I would look at ANY Cary. See how the power LED is wired up.. There's a hint, take it..

I could open up a Six Pac or V12r and take a peak. All I have on hand, currently. I'll bet they are all pretty close..
