Galaxy Saturn Turbo no TX HELP!

[VA3JWO]

I have a Galaxy Saturn Turbo that keys up with the red LED on but puts NO POWER out the back unless i have the brown and black 8 volt Amp relay Key Plug unplugged, then it does 2 watts swinging 7 and 15 watts of swing on SSB. when i plug the relay key wires back in, i get no power but the Relay arm inside moves a wee bit but doesnt CLICK. This all of a suddon happened!
Are my 2SC2290 Pills in the back shot? Or is the relay done? the Relay isnt CLICKing anymore when i PTT and this all happened all of a suddon when i was talking. the Arm inside the Relay moves, however the Relay no longer Clicks and i dont get power output with the Amp Key plugged in. i have to unplug it then i get a few watts of power output.
The radio has the Ranger EPT295013Z Board.
Please Help
WIll

Check the power supply. Turn the tx power down as far as it can go and see if it will transmit. The saturns power supply was not strong enough to handle the amp that is in the turbo version so it is the first thing to go.

Try to hook up an external power supply if possible. My friends turbo had same exact problem she got power supply and it works perfect!

Okay thank you for the reply. The relay started working normally again randomly when i moved connectors around and cleaned things up a bit, but now smoke was coming from the amp upon keyup! So in to the tech she goes with new transistors and whatever else plus possiblly beefing up the power supply.
Might try one of those rectangular ebay 30 amp power supplies with the fan built in and the metal case since itl fit in a 2990. Seen a guy on youtube do this and it has adjustable voltage. Not very expencive either.
Too much space taken up to run an external power supply
Thanks for the reply!

DON'T buy a power supply off E BAY, get one at an radio dealer, they are a lot better and you can return them if it fails out of the box....
