Need help repairing solid state amp!

One channel of a solid state AB amp given to me does not work. I found a transistor ( not output) and a few resistors that were burnt. I replaced the components using the other channel as a guide and when I applied power all the components I replaced burnt yet again. Before I continue in a blind search for a solution I think I had better ask for some guidance in the trouble shooting process. The bipolar power supply seems to be functioning well. I did find that the cooling fan was not functional and maybe the cause for the meltdown. The fan problem has been solved.
Any tips or testing methods or ideas as to what I should do would be of value,
Thank-you Stefan
