Hello and welcome!

Please discribe for me how you went about installing a new power cord , as messing up on its installation should have if anything blown the fuse or circuit breaker on the wall outlet you had the amp plugged into and have done any harm to the amp!
So is the new cable wired up correctly now?
Was the amp working ok before the cable install?

If the amp is not blowing a fuse now atleast that's one good thing, but the only guess I can take is that you bent a component up against another when working inside the amp.
A first guess would be the two leads off of the bias diode that loads into a clip between the two output transistors are shorter to each other or the diode is pushed into the clip too far and was shorting out?
